My God, you should've seen us! See Venus every night from our front garden. Brighter than a bright thing!
I think i saw it a while ago when we where looking at the moon through our telescope, it was the right shape with the bits out the sides passed in front of the moon, it was pretty quick and massive
Venus is looking particularly bright at the moment, and just to the left of it is Jupiter , before too long the pair of them should appear to be close to each other..
Just at the right angle to the sun, I assume. I did see a bright object to the left of it - must be @art b 's Jupiter. Didn't have me iPhone astronomy thing running...
