Been out and seen it.

Not too much like "Under a Blood Red Sky" more like a pale pink disk.

Clear( ish ) sky in the East Riding.

Oh come on, it wasnt that bad. At least they didnt hype it to pieces like that other eclipse. Man that one was interesting enough, but a chunky dissapointment.

Ooh pretty and red and shimmery.

Clear as a whistle in Aberdeen. Not a great fan of nature`s beautys, but I had no idea it was coming so it was a nice surprise to a dull evening. A shame how everything in space takes so bloody long though.
