It's my fault the comet came past earth in 1992 in the first place. I parked the Tardis near Ganymede and the damn thing bounced off the side and headed into the inner solar system  LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

cloud cover pretty extensive here in Glos. We went to local hilltop and saw one meteor each then clouds rolled in and it started to rain so that's it for tonight. Will be interested to see if others get pics.

Sod this, I saw one when I first came out and now I see just normal stars, planes and a listened to geese fly over and the train to York is on time, or so the tanoy system just announced Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
