Northern Lights Wigan style. I literally can’t believe this I’m so excited .

Wow, I’m so excited I’ve just seen the Northern lights, they are actually visible over Pboro.

So jealous! I was out of bed at 1.40am hoping to catch a glimpse but nothing for me. That is a great photo you got though.

Armagh are in the Ulster Final tomorrow and the hype train is at full speed. Our consecutive final but it is 16 years since we brought home the Anglo-Celt cup. Tickets are like gold dust and we enter the game with a 50/50 chance which is all you can ask for in a final.

Yesterday a lot of the schools had an Armagh day with all kids wearing orange. A very colourful sight as you can imagine. Nothing brings the atmosphere like the verve and excitement of youth.

I think it may have to go to VAR this one blue

They have drawn the lines and decided it was Elton who appeared to play but Rick who DID play . So an own goal for you

Hundreds of Brits have reported seeing the Northern Lights from their windows tonight thanks to a severe geomagnetic storm that threatens to disrupt the world's power grids.
Pictures shared on social media show large swathes of the country draped in a spectacular light display known as an aurora.
Scientists previously raised concerns that the geomagnetic storm – the first to strike Earth in almost 20 years – has the power to disrupt power grids, mobile networks and GPS satellites

Apparently in the right moment it shines on the Arteta money .

Morning all, well after staying up way too late in the garden with a couple of whiskys to watch the northern lights I’ve woke up with a bit of a headache- no sympathy as it’s very self inflicted. I follow the alerts religiously and have been parked in dark lanes many a time over the years (no comments please ) so to have the luxury of sitting on a sun lounger just looking up was just amazing and I’ll never forget it.
Off to GP later for the last game of the season and whilst it’s lovely not to feel sick with nerves at the prospect of relegation it does feel a little flat. Still a beautiful day is forecast so it will be nice to have a game at 3pm on Saturday in the sun. Thrilled for Dyche to win manager of the month, I know not everyone likes him and there was that blip, but this is the first season in a long time when I’ve thought we had a chance, however slim, of getting something out of each game . I hope he gets a further season.
Enjoy your day everyone

Morning all, like others I caught the Northern Lights last night but as it doesnt get really dark until quite late now I couldn’t be bothered staying up too late . Have a great day all.

Boys and their toys ! Be careful with hessian backed ones as they can warp and shrink if they get too wet .

My wife bought those plates in the 70's when she worked in London along with the coddlers I posted a while ago .

Well deserved 3 points today boys . plus a record equaling five games without conceding what is not to like .COYB

Good afternoon all. You do realise that had it not been for the 8 points we would currently be 11th! That's not too shabby given the last two seasons.
I missed the Northern Lights last night - was tucked up in bed ready for an early overtime start. However they might be visible again tonight so I'm going to look.
It's a gorgeous day here. We went to the gym earlier, it was very hot but we persevered and had a really good PT session. I'm exhausted now - my legs are fully seizing up! Still it has to be doing some good.
Enjoy your evening, I hope the thunderstorms don't get you!
