Hi,
I didn't have many occasions to observe meteors (bad weather). This is what I got from data for December and the entire Geminid campaign. 

Day : 30-01   Month : December Year : 2005 
begin : 02.20 UT    end : 04.50 UT
Location : Ellezelles - Belgium    long. 3.38  E    lat. 50.43 N    alt 120 m
Observer : Vandeputte Michel    IMO code ; VANMC
Method : tape recorder - 
Field : east - south east 


Observed Showers : 

Early Geminids
Chi Orionids (alfa 81° / delta +23°)
Hydrids (alfa 120° / delta +3°)
Monocerotids (alfa 92° / delta +8°)
