Its not worth the risk if the sun is up - best to get the shadow of a tree or building between you and its disk if you do need/want to be observing before it sets.

Sounds like this is most likely scenario Suzy - Venus just doesn't pack enough punch to hurt you as you say. Hope you're ok now - you have many worried.

Definitely worth making up with Venus too some time to watch the phases.
