Bits and Bobs


  • I'm still not working for the Scottish Government, but I have finally a start date: 10th March. One more week of leisure.
  • I received my first payment for self-employed work: 26.74 Euros.
  • The first time I walked up Calton Hill many years ago I witnessed a marriage proposal. Today, I walked up for the second time to top that and witness the Northern Lights but sadly I couldn't see them. Was nice up there anyway.

    ...not quite as romantic as walking up a hill to see the lights - but updated every few hours:

    Seems like chances are currently best somewhere north of Iceland :-)

    Apparently, they could be seen in Scotland last Thursday, even from Portobello Beach just outside of town!

    just checked some of these tiny satellite movies - seems that max. southern expansion and intensity was often at early (really early) morning hours recently. Maybe that's worth a try... if not the Lights, you could witness sunrise on Carlton hill instead :-)
