It just darted across the sky and faded Smile.

Is there a meteor shower over England / Hampshire or could it have been a shooting star?

You should be able to see Perseids meteor shower over the next few days in the uk.

The Perseids

At their peak over the next couple of days!

oooo, so glad I'm a slattern and putting my washing out this time of night.

Will watch from my window when I go up to bed.

Saying earlier on News24 that it could be a good night for seeing them, with 80-100 meteors per hour but you'll have to try and spot them between breaks in the cloud! (From BBC website with a map showing where to look in the sky.)

was very cloudy last night :( Did think about getting up before dawn but didnt get beyond the thought!

Went out about 10.30pm and didn't see anything, same between 3 and 4am (bad sleeper here!) I think we're too close to street lights/light pollution from Leicester to ever see anything.
