They're out there tonight guys! First time I've gotten to see them this year.

Great bright bluey/whites

Unfortunately its through broken cloud - hopefully the ****ty cloud clears away a bit more and we get a better look at them later

But for those of you without cloud, get yourselves out there and looking north

Noticed that after leaving the pub. Friend thought the sun was about to come up and another lad thought it was the aurora,
