I dreamt I saw them, was probably more spectacular than actually seeing them.

Excellent!

Its a nice clear night here in Shropshire, keeping my fingers crossed that I get lucky. I think this is the only positive point to the councils decision to turn off the street-lights after midnight cheesey

Clouds again here. I even cleaned my 180degree FOV lens in hopes it would clear up. :/

We saw several last night, around midnight GMT. One went right accross the sky from west to east, probably the best I've seen.

I didn't see any in the end, I sat outside for about an hour with a pint of scrumpy cider but wasn't lucky enough to see any pass over.

Although I did see a few Chinese sky lanterns!

But someone a few miles away snapped this up Link2

A group of us went camping in the outskirts of York for the shower. It was a clear night and I saw about 20, in all areas of the sky as well, sadly no pictures to share though.
