And plus+1 for what you said here

Maybe stick with what you have, put what you would spend on EPs toward a larger appenture scope.
Sylvain has given some really great advice too, I couldn't agree more with what you said Sylvan, re "seeing" and "observing".
And I'd also like to expand on what you said

the most important is to keep observing and using your equipment
- Spot on!

Wey, use the opportunity of when the Moon is around to also observe the sky without any aid. If you learn the brightest stars in the sky (it's within the link of my original post here), it will make finding objects so much easier. You won't be learning them all in one go either, as different stars will be visible during different seasons so you will have plenty of time to become acquainted with them. Then learn some constellations, slowly over time (don't expect to know them all ) . Make up your own constellation pattern if it makes things easier - I know I have a few made up ones . Bet several others here do too .
