Barry, go for 2159.  You should see around 40 satellites, variously spaced, across 20 minutes.  They will pass roughly West to East, and all will traverse Ursa Major.

Plus there's the Lyrid's about tonight. 

My village last night. Too much light pollution and ISO3200 was too high but I'm getting there!

[Sparky]

Not brilliant due to a neighbour's sudden light pollution, but managed to see around 20, and caught a couple on dodgy pics.  Here's the best of a bad bunch:

 Saw quite a few satellites but don't think they were Musk's.

Yes - too light here also but did see some good shooting stars, one even broke into several pieces - never seen that before 🙂.

Ours sounds at 11.30 every Monday in Devonport Chris, for years it was the dockyard time siren for shift start/end and lunch breaks.

I would certainly miss it if gone. 🙄

Watching that video with the volume certainly caused a stir as my wife came dashing down saying “can you hear the siren” with panic in her eyes 🤣🤣

Anyone else watching the Goodwood "live" streaming?

Never understood that. Only people who use cm in the real world are curtain makers and other soft furnishings.

@pete, 10.16 by 5.08 isn't quite the same as 4 be 2 is it?!

[Chillidoggy]

Pete still struggles with buying petrol in litres. God knows what he’ll do when we all start using kW’s.

My education was a few years after the start of the move to metric, but my father was born in 1924 so firmly imperial measurements. I still find myself thinking I need some 4x2 1.8m of it, or an 8x4 sheet of 9m ply.
