Well I too am in the south-west, near currently very sunny Bude. It was a fantastically clear and starry night. Orion was almost as stunning as the eclipsed moon, and Venus was like a beacon in the south-east before the eclipse had finished. I had to lean out of me spare bedroom window to crane round to see the eclipse properly, and, as I don't wear jim-jams (down, girls!), things were getting a bit parky. I must point out that we have no neighbours looking in! I got a few pics on my hundred-quid compact camera, but, quality-wise, they will be mementos, not moneymakers. The moon was more of a dark coppery tint than the blood red of headlines, but gorgeous nonetheless. Today's weather was sparkling and we toddled off to our favourite garden, Trebah near Falmouth, where the amazing groves of mophead hydrangeas were impressive (don't knock 'em until you've seen 'em!). It's been a long day!
