As you watch the Aurora this evening, itโs worth reflecting that youโre getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that weโre very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)
So after months of playing Wordle and almost always starting with the same word, this happened... I almost screamed!!! ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ But it was after midnight and I would have woken my husband, so I just about managed to contain my excitement!! ๐

#OnThisDay in 1955, Richard Burton had a Christmas message he wished to send in Welsh to his family, his village and his country. He also had a festive message for English people... and a particularly feisty stallion. Merry Christmas / Nadolig Llawen, from all at BBC Archive.
@muse Big Muse fan, seen you live 4 times and you are amazing! But, oh my dear lord - j'adore Mylene farmer! ๐ฅฐ๐ถ I have been in love with this woman's voice and music since I first heard her on MTV in 1988. This is a beautiful collaboration - merci beacoup! ๐ค
@ToveLo Only just discovered your album 'Dirt Femme' a few weeks ago - 'Attention Whore' is great, I absolutely LOVE 'Grapefruit,' but 'Suburbia' is divine! ๐๐๐ป๐ต
