Sadly it has become the shabbiest solar eclipse ever over here. It is so overcast that you don't even notice any difference at all :(

I had an excellent view and I also have something for those unable to see it:

And here's a single shot:

I'm surprised myself that my camera was able to show the sun's surface like that. The single shot even shows a sun spot.
