Saw this with a mate i will get her to put the pics up tomorrow night after she finnish from work.Thanks for bringing this post up mate.

only 1 n in finish no probs about the post here to serve look forward to you pics any pics will do

will we see anything here or am i just going to get a kink in my neck looking up at the sky where is the best place in the wirral to see this if we can see it

look to the north east preferably in a dark area, sadly for us liverpools light pollution doesnt help us on the wirral

just been out watching it, look for the `plough` and its in that area, seen loads

Just slurping a hot drink after spending 20mins outside. A brilliant display! Saw 6 or 7 in that time. A couple directly overhead, but most to N and N.E. Fortunate to have only about 2 octas of cloud cover here and having no light pollution helps. BLACK sky and a shed load of stars out!

I'd forgotten about the event, but I had the BBC World Service on and there was a mention of it, so sweater on over PJ's and into garden. Total peace & quiet too - apart from a pair of Tawny Owls in the adjacent plantation having a chat. Maybe they were impressed as well. Back to the pit.

Thanks for the heads up jabber.

It was very cloudy on the Wirral last night.I did keep watch but the sky wasnt all that clear.

iknow ive not seen one as yet...

perfect for this tonight, off out now to have a look

Lovely pink clouds but no meteorites- will try again later.

Had a look outside myself to try and see the ISS at 10.05 and hoping to see meteors as well - no luck
Lots of cloud, big orange streetlight and next door's flashing garden lights didn't help.
