| Name | Charline B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | A few minutes after this I saw four light ‘shooting stars’ in the same area of the sky. I waited for a further 10 minutes but saw nothing else. I was getting neck ache, otherwise I would’ve watched for longer. This is my first experience of such a thing and I am 51! I just felt like looking at the stars tonight, before bed and was gifted with this breath-taking sight. |
