Default From a cold beach...

Frozen from Selsey Bill.

Blimey, that wind's a bit chilly. Nearly got wet down there too!

However, at least I wasn't imagining it...

Yes, well, I bet you didn't see really nice fluffy clouds though, did you.
I saw loads in Tonbridge and they were great. In fact the best cloud I have
seen for ages. Really good. Probably one of the best cloud events for some
considerable time. I'm so glad they were thick enough to blot out that
horrendeous sky glow above.

I stayed up till 2am enjoying the ever flowing fluffiness. Such a shame
lots of people had their evening nobbled by this nebulous solar waste.

Regards,
Ed.

Yes it was a bit hit and miss for some (and almost me - it didn't
really clear until about half past midnight). I got one great shot of
cloud that I could pass off for an aurora though.

I hope those that didn't see it this time around get to see something
shortly. This newsgroup is great for such events. To be honest, if I
hadn't read a number of the reports coming in, I may well have gone to
bed early and missed it. I've done that before - so I know how it
feels to read the "wow", "fantastic" posts when you've missed it
