Was very cloudy here and I only got to see about four meteors. I did however have the scope out and was enjoying great views of the moon and Jupiter. Anyone else stay up to watch the show  |

LOL same here spud. The small gaps in the clouds were enough to see the Moon and Jupiter for just short times, but worth staying up for.
The shower was nothing great because of the cloud cover.

Bit too much cloud here too when the meteors were due but I snapped this on Friday night....  It's the ISS taken with a digicam through my spotting scope. Not quite the Hubble quality but you can make out the solar panels ;D |

ah very cool. Tried to take a pic of the moon and Jupiter but clouds kept getting in the way. Next clear sky I'll try again.
Good to see someone else here with a scope.
