    Stargazing

    Last night, me and Ems went out into deepest darkest Derbyshire to see if we could spot any meteor showers, and YES - we managed to see quite a few of them.

    Different colours and going in all directions. Some seemed to be falling to Earth, but most were just so quick across the skies. I managed to get one on a picture too.

    It was very cold but I did enjoy the time spent with Ems. After a while, Ems was inside the warm car while I was still enjoying the free night show.

    Some pictures will follow later

    Steve, not easy to get a picture of seeing - they only last less than a second

    You are right Joe, it's pot luck if you managed to get a glimpse even. Just great to see something that only happens a few times.

    The last time something like this impressed me was the Hale-Bopp Comet. Amazing seeing that for days on end
