    They were a few minutes apart. Took a while to find them but they were all on same trajectory.

    All I saw was street lights , I’ve got three within 20 yard of my house , just put a new one up at the back where they are building , coupled with my neighbour who thinks he lives at the Stadium of Light with the amount of security lights he’s got
