The clouds have finally parted here (someone must have a received a new scope for Christmas nearby).

Unfortunately I missed Machholz and the Pleiades (thanks for the top pics folks!).

Also it has moved too far round to the North behind some trees when viewed from my yard.

Still, I got a quick look at a very turbulent Saturn and a couple of nebulae tonight (Eta Carinae and the Tarantula with help from a narrowband filter).

Then finished up with a bit of wide field scanning with my 35 Pan and the filter.

All in all a good hour spent under the stars at last!
