another chance on the 22nd/23rd apparently but I reckon if you get a gap in the cloud you may still see something now if you are patient. Saw something even more interesting this morning the red arrows were out practising

Any particular time on the 22nd/23rd?

I don't think I'm going to see anything this time, its raining hard at the moment and were are forecast to possibly get snow later. Would like to see the red arrows as well, I was at the air show in bournemouth when John Egging was killed so not the happiest memory of them knowing what happened after the display.

It was raining here so no chance of seeing anything. I think I have jinxed the weather. I bought a telescope a couple of months ago and we have had hardly any clear nights since (at least not on nights when I could have got the telescope out).

well they reckon it goes on till gone 2am - so plenty of time yet. Have to admit I am now sitting in front of a blazing fire with the warmest dressing gown I could find with a hooge mug of ovaltine far too cold to go out again.... such an exciting life I lead!
