I had the satisfaction of seeing shooting star last night, purely by accident. 
Kato started howling about 1.30 this morning so I assumed he wantd to go out for a wee. I put the lead on him and took him in the garden. It was a lovely clear evening when I saw the shooting stars.
I had read about the Perseid shower but was enthralled when I spotted it. I didn't realise it happened at this time of year every year.

Builder that would like to go play in the garden.

I was fast asleep at 1.30, but, like SC, it was raining when I toddled off to bed about 12.

Too much cloud cover here in Glos.
Glad that you and Kato got to see them though, Vinny.

He wasn't desperate for a wee, so maybe it was a wanabe burglar that got him agitated? I spent an hour on the couch to settle him down and he came and lay beside me (which ISN'T like him) until I got a crick in the neck, then I left him sleeping, tip toed out of living room and went to bed before dawn.It was a really clear 'frosty' night, without the frost, if you know what I mean!
