Default Venus the Evening Star Shinning Brightly

Couldn't help but notice how bright Venus was in the NW sky last night
after sunset (between 22:00 - 23:00 BST). Mars could also be easily
spotted higher in the WSW, and Saturn was just above the Moon in the
South.

This site is very useful, you can put your coordinates in and have a
virtual sky for your location.
