The Geminids have come

Tonight I went out looking for the Geminids, a meteor shower at this time of year, and I did indeed see two beautiful shooting stars (and a couple of little ones) blaze across South London.

For once the cursed clouds of London did not ruin the experience of an astronomical event, and I have an excellent place to stare up into the night sky - a hilltop in my locale.
