We've all seen them, but tonight I was gazing up at the sky whilst eating dinner, and I saw something. It was moving slower than the usual ones, and it actually broke up into 3 or 4 pieces and had a small tail. Satellite perhaps? About 21:10 heading West, I think.

The chances of that are a million to one.

Just to be on the safe side though, perhaps worth avoiding Horsell Common for the next couple of days.

Brilliant White. Doubt it was part of that thing ^^^ as this has been described as grains of sand etc. This must have been bigger to break-up into several pieces.
