Northern Lights Alert

 Quick, quick have you seen them? these pictures are from Northumberland I think this one was taken last night on the Holy Island Causeway, it's just amazing ! We get glimpses and flashes all the time here in Scarborough and you have to be on the beach early in the morning but it's quite unusual to get a display as good as this as far south as Berwick. I don't know how long I've had a fascination with this phenomena when I first heard about it as a young child I couldn't believe that something so magical could exist and it is purely astonishing!

Here's another pic, I wonder if could brace the cold tonight and do a bit of skywatching up at Robin Hood's Bay or Ravenscar; you have to be somewhere facing north with no light pollution.Mmmm we'll see how the temperature goes today, not looking too hopeful at the moment, it's supposed to be a mild winter but I'm always freezing even with my thermals on as well!!
Meeting Suzanne later on at Mr Milos for a coffee we always have a good natter, that's after I pick up my knitting needles and buttons from a very nice lady from Freegle. Do you subscribe to your local Freegle or Freecycle as it used to be? It's brilliant and if you're the sort of person who doesn't like to waste anything and can repurpose most things it's right up your street, and totally free!! yippee!! have a good day everyone xx
