Tina Baxter says she saw a bright light when she was driving home. "It was heading north and it appeared directly in front of me. It was travelling east to west.
"At first I thought it was a firework, but it was travelling at a funny angle - across then down.
"It was a bit scary because it was so massive and incredibly bright. When I got home, my brother was there, and he said he saw it as well"

I was out and about at that time last night and can't say that I saw a thing. Then again, I live in a fairly well built up area, so it was probably hidden behind the buildings.

Shame, I would have liked to have seen it.

Am I the only one that would run for cover and brace for impact while getting ready to "give up my spirit" in a blast of sizzling death and unimaginable pressure? I guess I worry too much...
