The Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis
NASA has released this video of the aurora.
I have seen the aurora once and that was from a British Airways flight going to the United States. It was in the 1980s and the pilot banked the plane, so that everybody got a good view.
The nearest I got to seeing it in the UK, was on my trip north from Edinburgh to Inverness on the InterCity 125.
It is the highest railway in the UK and the driver said they see it regularly, when conditions are good. Sadly, we didn’t see it that night!

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.
