Just been out (17:00 PM on Sun 2th Dec) to spot the impending
occlusion of Saturn by Jupiter.

At about 11 o'clock from Jupiter and about "a couple of mm"
away is another, fainter, object.

Would this be Saturn?


Yes it is, spot on


I've been looking but the Chiltern Hills are WSW from here and there has
been a patch of cloud in the way both evenings.
