Anybody been out to take a look? Fortunately it's a cold and clear night so a good chance to see the annual Geminid meteor shower. I've just been out for 10 minutes and saw 7 meteor trails which is much better than usual....last time there was a lot of patchy cloud. Be warned though, it is getting pretty chilly out there.

I live in the Manchester area, it's been a few months since we've seen the sky in general.
