Don`t you just hate these fakers!!!

I actually saw a real one on the 28th, about half a hour after the ISS passed by. Was to the south-west and started about 30 degrees above the horizon and headed straight down and would have hit -8 mag as it went behind the mountains. Brightest one I have seen for ages!!
I watched a -7 iridium flare a few nights before and this was brighter..
cheers
