Roger,

Yes, that would be useful thanks. Objects that are photographable are 
worth me generating charts for as long as there are not too many.

I found C/2013 R1 very easily in binoculars last night, despite the high 
Full Moon. My DSLR photo (to be submitted) showed the typical blue/green 
gas coma but the tail was disappointing - probably too faint against the 
sky background.
