As i was waiting for my injured cat (leg in plaster) to do his business, the
other night at 4 am, i was looking heavenward at the stars and decided to
get the binocs out. As i was marvelling at the extra stars i could see (and
you get a lot up here as we have no steetlighting etc ) i followed what i
thought at first to be a shooting star but then soon realised that it was
not burning out and going a bit slow. It moved steadily over my head and
then off over the roof.

Was that the International Space station I saw?

If you go to http://www.heavens-above.com/ you can get all sorts of info about
this sort of stuff.

It certainly sounds ISS-ish though :-)
