4 inch dob targets on moonless nights?

Hi, I've just bought myself a little 4 inch dobsonian quite cheap from a charity shop and I'm really eager to do some observing but unfortunately I'm not able to stay up to moonrise with my daytime commitments at the moment. I should be able to get some moon observations in around the 17th and later but I was wondering, is there anything my little scope could manage to make out between now and then?

For reference, I'm I'm the NE of the UK, I have access to some pretty dark skies and as I say I'm using a 4 inch dob with eyepieces 4mm, 12mm and 20mm, plus an additional eyepiece that will apparently combine with the 4mm to produce 262× magnification but I'm already aware that this is just advertising nonsense.

Thanks for your advice!
