I've got the 11x70s on a L bracket on a camera tripod. I think I saw both A1 and A2 vanish but you're right about the glare. The reappearance might be a bit clearer being on the dark limb - the Moon will be a whole 0.6% past full.
Mozzie, your handle would be really appropriate here. The mosquitoes are out in force tonight.
