Tomorrow sees the earth going through a nice stream of comet dust, which means we get a lovely display of shooting stars! This display should start from 10pm onwards and we could see as many as two shooting stars a minute So how much do you want to bet that it's cloudy tomorrow
Just thought i'd mention this as it could be nice to watch

[Janette]

That sounds lovely! I've only ever seen two shooting stars in my life!!!!!!!!!


For the superstitious among us, if you make a wish when you see a shooting star, then your wish WILL come true


Will Young, I'm gonna make that wish you lucky boy!!!!

[Amy]

Thats a very good point Now who could i wish for............................................... ...... DERMOT

Thanks for letting us know about this Amy.

Unfortunately, the weather where I am is forecast to be rain tomorrow, but I'm hopeful that I'll be able to catch a glimpse of these shooting stars.

I wonder if a certain Paul Clarke will be gazing up at the skies tomorrow night, thinking that he's spotted another UFO? (Wonder what he wished for when he saw that shooting star in the BB2 house?)

I remember him saying on BBLB that he'd made a wish on that shooting star, Kaz.

Whatever it was, I have a feeling that it did come true. aul: :helen:

Great I'll be looking out for them, I've got a telescope and have seen the rings of Saturn. But I just hope it doesn't set off Stick's again about metorites hitting the earth.

[Sticks]

Meteorites hit us everyday

its asteroids that are the problem

[Amy]

Remember from 10pm onwards tonight I hope we get to see a nice display of shooting stars You never know we might get to see a UFO!!!

[mcginn]

it's look like it it's going to be a nice night no cloud in sight

[steve_o]

It's just typical, it's been sunny all day with no clouds now there thick and I can't see a dam thing.

[Janette]

It must be the dust cloud!!!!!!!!!!!

[susieq]

Same here Steve - clear blue skies and sunshine all day and now it's cloudy. Never mind, apparently we'll be able to see them over the next few nights so fingers crossed for tomorrow.

[Amy]

Well, i have seen eleven so far tonight some are very very bright, keep looking they will be around for the next few days but remember the peak could be in our daylight

[Mairi]

Same here too, Steve. Beautiful day and then a disappointingly cloudy night.

I hope you're right, Susieq and we get another chance to see these shooting stars. I'll be watching again tomorrow.

[Amy]

The cloud is starting to come over here too but tommorow and wednesday especially promise to be nice so hopefully the evenings will be clear Be prepared for a sore neck mine is killing me at the mo

[mcginn]

Here is the story on last nights shooting stars if anyone would like a read

[Glitter_babe]

Well, I went out last night with my pillow and some wine, and you know what??

IT WAS BLOODY CLOUDY!

So, there may well have been a lovely stream of stars, but Newcastle didn't see it.

[Amy]

Oh no poor Glitter babe, well is it cloudy at the moment? If not you may get a chance to see them tonight, my fingers are crossed for you

[Di2001]

A lovely clear night here in Suffolk last night. Went out in my garden for only about 5 mins and in that time I saw 4. Great!!
