Thanks for the comments folks. I have spent the last 10 years working in London and New York and only recently returned to Scotland. As you can imagine the skies in both cities are shocking so my return to decent skies in Scotland is an eye opener. Now i seem to be going in reverse aperture.....large dobs down to a small apo and some nice binos. Having travelled around folks all i can say its worth every penny to get to dark skies even if you only have a pair of binoculars with you. A few years ago i went down under and i got some stunning skies and memories that i will never forget. Everyone astronomer in their life time should witness lying on your back and marvelling at the milkyway. Heck i did the same down under but almost got into trouble with a snake. Someone just give me the light swtich to turn of all the light pollution.
