I just walked in the door in Sydney..this driving is getting me down but the loading and unloading is forcing me to keep moving☺.

Alex,

level is a reference - if it is set correctly first time, then the next time you just level it again with bubble (by placing wedge(s) below tripod legs) and adjust azimuth with compass.
Then you will be close enough to pole for finer adjustment by polar scope.. or software routine.
