Not sure what night you were viewing (I saw a couple of ISS passes in Cornwall last week), but it is worth considering that this is also up there and pretty close to ISS.
In total, during one observation last week, I saw the Shuttle, the ISS and I guess this (plus another unidentified object in a similar orbit)
The ISS is actually very easy to see, provided you know which direction and where to look. It is the brightest object in the Sky (save the Sun & Moon of course) and on a good night with a long observation time, you can easily see it moving from one side of the sky to the other.

| Saw this for the first time tonight, its been cloudy round my way the past week. Came up exactly at the time expected and was clearly visible for about 2 minutes then it went faint very quickly.
The other bright "star" in the sky around the place where the space station crossed over is the planet Jupiter, thats quite clearly visible at the moment.
The HTV refuelling satelitte is docked onto the ISS at the moment.
