Thanks to all for their helpful advice. I talked to a very helpful man at Bintel who said pretty much the same.....wait and get 2 or 3 good ones, maybe a 5 or 6mm, a 13mm and a 24mm.
I think I'll forget the Barlow idea.
He did say a filter was a good idea and mentioned the Astronomik UHC, though I have read reviews that the DGM NPB (only available from the States) is marginally better as the best all-rounder to get. I'm thinking at this stage I will just get the DGM NPB filter and spend the next 6 months getting a feel for it all with what I have.
Down the track I will supplement the DGM NPB with an OIII filter and the better quality eyepieces as advised by all posts. This means I will have good tools as everyone says should I really get into the astronomy caper and want a bigger scope at a latter stage!
Again, appreciate all the advice offered.
