Perseid shower

Anyone seen any yet? I'm stepping outside in about 20 minutes to try and spot the ISS, but not sure I could venture out very late/early morning. Who wants to come and hold my hand?

I have just been with Chloe for her late walk and it is too cloudy here to see anything tonight

Yes, very cloudy here too, so couldn't spot the space station.

Wll see if I'm still up after midnight to try for the showers.

Re: Perseid shower

Had excellent luck tonight. Not only saw the ISS clear as a bell, but 3 of the Perseids!! (In hour and half). Just had some warming Horlicks, waiting for those upstairs to stop slamming windows, and I might attempt some sleep. Exciting evening.

Seen the ISS quite a few times but the Perseids are something else.
