Title: Re: perseid meteor shower (of shite in london) Post by: Woodsey on August 10, 2016, 12:37:06 AM Which direction should we be gazing? Crossed my mind also rotflmfao Although a quick google a few mins ago says just lie back on the floor or on a sun chair with a wide view and you should be covered. Title: Re: perseid meteor shower (of shite in london) Post by: bagel on August 11, 2016, 10:09:29 PM looks grim for those in scotland or north of england.

I'm guessing you have to look in the correct direction. It's usually NE from Nottingham. I know this because my balcony faces due South :( |
