Visitor in Adelaide needs your urgent help

Hi,
I've just arrived in Adelaide for Christmas through to Jan 6th with my family and I'm desperate to have a look at the highlights of the beautiful southern sky. Does anyone have a decent cat so that I can have a look at a few of the objects I'll never see from London? I'm in Western Adelaide and I'm willing to take a taxi ride if you're willing to host me for an hour or so and show me what you can see. I live in Central London and so I peer through the worst orange skies in Europe where the only galaxy I can see is M31 and where I have to flip from one filter to another to try and screen out the dreadful glow. I know that metropolitan Adelaide has it's light pollution, but I would happily swap your glow for mine :-)
So, I know it's holiday time and that everyone is weighed down by family obligations, but if you are willing to take a little time out, I'd be a willing student - just drop me a PM.
Cheers,
Gerrymac.
