The nights are getting dark again B)

I think it's not that big of a deal to be honest not having astro-dark.  Nautical dark is perfectly acceptable for DSOs as long as you wait a good half an hour after nautical dark kicks in (1 hour is better).  Of course, at this time of the year it really means very late nights which is possibly not suitable for those having to get up early in the morning for work but that's a different issue.

You certainly don't need to wait for mid August for useful darkness and length.  I managed from 11:30 until 2:30am so 3 hours last weekend with a good list of observing DSOs and it's getting better every night that passes. :)
