To change the subject - several days ago I took my very first Venus sight (in an AH). The intercept was 2.5'. I also tried Canopus and Menkar for my first three-star fix but the clouds got in the way.
Before anyone comments I know that Venus is a Wanderer but I think it can be included in a three-star fix!
