You missed a visual treat Lewis. Just like the disappearance, there is a bit of suspense waiting for the reappearance. Then the moment Regulus jumped into view you were treated to a bright shining jewel hanging for a few moments right on the limb of the moon. This is quite spectacular for bright stars not unlike the Bailey Beads effect at total eclipses.
