Two curiositys from yesterdays shower (4:00UT peak) observed from Fife in Scotland.

I saw a brightish,mag 0, metoer which left a short lived bright persistent train but as the train formed another flashed up parallell and only 10-15 arcminutes or less away from it. What was curious was that I did not see the meteor that produced this other train it appeared to flash into existence as the other train formed. I saw a second similar event a little later in the shower.
