I think we'll be lucky to see anything through the cloud.

Sadly I agree.

I didn't see a darn thing.

(Sent out all of my year 8s to try and see it though)

which of course meant I had some easy homework to mark!

I saw it from home on March 12th when it was close to the slenderest crescent Moon I have ever seen. Its tail stood bolt upright from the horizon. Then I saw it again on March 18th from the Sami camp at Tromso where we had an observing site with no obstructions. Again it was an easy object. The last time I saw it was off the ship when they turned off all the deck lights to view the aurora.
