I woke at 1.30 and went downstairs to make a cup of tea. The stars were absolutely brilliant, the plough was huge and hung low over the big field, the milky way ran across the top of the farmhouse. In fact there were so many stars visible it was hard to pick out individual constellations. It wasn't cold and I stayed outside for a long time. Sadly although so bright I couldn't photograph them without a tripod. It was very special just to watch them though. I went to see if Dave was awake but he was fast asleep. Later I came in and made my tea. By 4 it had clouded over and by morning we had rain.
