Had it been a comet, I would have definitely camped out
I only went out so you wouldn't look bad...Also one of my sheep crept up on me & scared the sh$t out of me!!

Didn't really get out as I've been doing very early shifts and need sleep. But saw a beauty last night at approx 9pm. Streaked across and disintegrated aswell. Was only outside for 10min so happy I saw 1!

I got zilch- across all three nights it was very cloudy .

According to reports that I've been reading, this year's shower was quite a weak one.
