I was awake at 4.30am. Had I remembered I could have gone outside, dragging the dog with me, but it’s too flipping cold for that malarkey!!!

I was outdoors in my fleecy dressing gown getting a cricked neck until 1.00am but alas all was still up in the heavens.

It was a lovely clear starry sky but oh so cold out there.

Same here, Mags.
I watched till my neck ached and I felt frozen, then came back in the warm.

Re: Leonids Meteor Storm 17/18th November

Despite the lack of success I have to say I am impressed with your efforts to see them!

It was a cloudy night here sadly so no chance of seeing them

Very clear here now but I'm guessing it has finished now.

I think we had more chance of seeing Leo Sayer shooting across the sky than a Leonid
