A belated thank you to everyone for their responses - I appreciate the advice.
I've ended up buying a second hand 8" celestron through here for half of what I was planning to spend, so am very pleased with this - and it's a terrific scope. I'm currently researching local groups, there's even one at Linden in the blue Mountains about 10 minutes down the highway, so will hopefully catch up with locals there.
So much to learn!!!
Cheers
Tim
