It's been a long time up here in Sydney too. Tonight looks promising so far. I might get to join you in spirit with my scope too.
If you can, sit on the Eta Carina nebula for a while. It is highly detailed with lots of delicate dark pillars and 'tiny' star clusters nestled within it. And have a shot at the Homunculous Nebula by kicking up the power on the Eta Carina star itself- it is the bright, orangish looking star sitting in the middle of the brightest 'cloud'. You'll notice the lace-like hour glass nebula bulging out from this star. But you'll need more than 100X to begin to glimpse it.
