Thanks for that! 🙂 I realised in the meantime, having read wispy~misty's post, that I've been missing something here 😉
As I don't visit this forum very often, I hadn't seen your previous thread, and shall go and look for it!
I did notice the new moon last evening, which was particularly clear, and wondered what was the 'star' I saw beneath it. Do you know? Sorry if it's irrelevant 😮

I saw it oo (amazing!) thoughtdef Venus but looked it up to be sure...
Venus:The Goddess of Love
Is in [link= http://www.r-clarke.org.uk/constellations/taurus.htm ]Taurus[/link], magnitude of -4.0. Is a brilliant object high in the western sky at sunset, and does not set until after midnight local time in the UK.On the 11th Venus is very close to the famous Pleiades (Seven Sisters) Star cluster, [link= http://www.r-clarke.org.uk/messier/m45.htm ]M45[/link], it is fairly close a few days before and after. On the evening of the 19th, it will be 6° to the upper left of the thin crescent Moon. Also on the 19th, Venus reaches perihelion - its closest to the Sun. On the following evening Venus will be 5° below and slightly right of the Moon.

Oh good! I noticed it while on a late trip to the supermarket, and stood in the market square just LOOKING up at the sky. At first I thought it was an airplane, because I saw no other stars, but then I thought nah, it's not moving, and they don't tend to park up there ;):D

Hails and I took the pups out into the sheep field with a malibu and coke to watch sunset last night and we were sat there for hours chatting, laughing (ok - wee bit of singing![sm=jump1.gif]) and watching the moon with venus - she was so so bright!:)
