Good training over 30 years of observing and about 16 years of those looking at faint galaxies for supernova's.
Missed a couple by that much One Robert Evens discovered only a few hours before me so no cigar the other by an american who found one in ngc1367 just a couple of hours before I spotted it.
Very cranky I was too.
Cheers
