thanks again for the comments and welcomes... i've been spending quite a bit of time clicking around the site and its starting to feel quite homely...
as for my scope, i will certainly be exploring its limits... i wont be in a position to upgrade for some time... other than a few accesories... telrad, barlow, eyepieces etc... i'm quite happy with the scope itself, not so happy with the rather flimsy eq1 mount... but its certainly very portable... i will be returning to and Adel - Melb run in the near future and will no doubt find room for it in my sleeper...
