Default beginners binoculars for astronomy?

I've heard of people using "monopods" for astronomy with binoculars.
There
may be something designed for binocular use available in telescope and
optics shops.


You could try the Argos catalogue. A tip I learned here a while ago is to
use an up-turned broom. Someone else suggested a thing for cleaning windows
as it's telescopic so can be set to the right hight for you. I found the
broom to work well but was too short.
