I must have been the lucky ones being out North then. I ran a viewing night for some of the kids and their parents from my school's astronomy club out of the drive way at home.

They got to see Venus in quarter phase, Jupiter with Callisto, Io and Ganymede - followed by Europa at the end of the night (9 pm), also Saturn with its rings, the Moon, NGC 5139 and a couple of stars thrown in. All round a good night was had by all - however, if I'd intended to any imaging the results would have been disappointing as the sky quality was quite poor.
