The shit that doesn't merit its own thread (the resurrection)

Aurora happening now. Showing on cliff-cam at Sumburgh. Shame about the light pollution, but you get a general idea of what it looks like

Guessing thatā€™s not a problem where you are, unless the Funzie casino/chicken ranch/nite spot megaplex is up and running?

The problem where we are is that we live on the South of the island and the hills block a lot of the view to the North.

Thereā€™s a perfect spot 3 miles away, but Iā€™m afraid Iā€™m full of pig and canā€™t be arsed tonight. Thereā€™ll be better opportunities later in the Winter.

Another from East Mainland. Both sites have fairly unrestricted Northerly views

Last one, promise.

This one has the added bonus of an Orionid in the picture!

Wonderful.

Well?

Sam and I had a very nice time, thanks for asking.

Andā€¦

I was 1.9 seconds off the lap record after 10 minutesā€¦okay considering I havenā€™t sat it a kart for 15 years and iā€™m in terrible shape!

I hope you stood on the podium unsmiling, eating a choc iceā€¦
