Hi,
I happened to be out in the garden watching the Moon and Venus set when I noticed this to the north west.

It was physically very big but also very faint, I'm not 100% convinced it not high altitude contrails or something to that effect, if other saw it then its a NLC, if not then its a local cloud event
Colour is right, the only thing is its a bit early in the summer for them....
Keep an eye out over the next few nights, it's not a gaurantee, but if they're there tonight, there is a good chance they could be there tomorrow night.
