Hi Gareth, and welcome
.
OOh, this is a beautiful scope, I had been looking at it too.
You can see MANY goodies with it, including galaxies and nebula.
Venus is often a blob in your EP as is so bright, but you need to take your time when viewing objects, and more detail pops in.
We checked out Venus the other night, a bright blob at first, then settled into a half crescent like the Moon.
There are many other better objects to see, so browse the threads, ther is info galore.
did you look at Saturn? It is a long way away, so small, but still gorgeous.
Yes, join a club.
