Hi Deirdre, yes it looks like we were both observing it ast the same time

I know the quality is not great, but the twilight was very strong, but I did track the motion of the comet between 23.30pm and 2am, relatively easy to pick up all the same, with a slight hint of a tail

Hi Deirdre, I observed it with my 15x70m binos, a lovely green colour with a slight hint of a tail in the 2 o'clock position. Hopefully it will get a bit brighter
