Yes, indeed, but perhaps you would be kind enough to do something about
the cloud cover here :-(

Likewise :-( most of the North and East of the sky cloud covered. Saw
3 in 2 hours. My vision might have been clouded a lttle by that second
bottle of Bulgarian Red!

Stayed up 23.00 - 00.30. Perfectly clear sky here in Essex, lots of stars
visible and Milky Way could be made out. Perseids seen: zero.
Presumably it all happened later in the night?
I sat in my garden (Fleet, Hampshire) from 23:00-23:30 and saw about 12-15
in total, including 3 in 10 seconds. I was amazed at how fast they move
across the sky.
