    Clouded over in Leeds half an hour before the action was due to begin. So I decided to wait for the untimely dusk and set off on a bike ride. Got out of the front door, looked up and saw the attached!

    Was out on my bike whilst it was happening, quite thin cloud and blue sky so was pretty good here, just had one dodge the drivers whilst they were looking directly at the sun!

    One joyless colleague then remarked "You see the moon like that most nights. This is such a non event." and walked off. But he's the Quality Assurance Manager, being a tw@t comes naturally.
    OI, watch your languages! ;)
  • It was cloudy in Manchester, but we managed to get a reasonably good view.
