Alan you are certainly on the right track. I remember using a pair of 7x50 bino and a pocket "Night Sky"( a Collin's Gem book) to familiarise the night sky. I used them for at least 2 years before buying my first scope & I am still amazed by the number of objects I could see through them. Just pick a moonless night and start looking around the southern cross/Carina part of the sky. You won't be disappointed. Enjoy!
