Thanks everyone for your help, this forum is awsome. I don't know anyone who has an active interest in astronomy where I live so this is going to be a big help. Its cloudy again tonight so can't use the LPI yet
I'll definately ask for some tips though when i use it cheers and I hope some time soon I will be able to help aswell. The weather must be better in Australia for checkin the sky. I'd love to be there checking out the jewel box and the tarantula
