From the Bolton News: Northern lights over Rivington yesterday. 

Anybody see them?

Isn’t that just the floodlights from yesterday’s game?

What's your point?

The chap took it from Westhoughton, looking towards Rivington. Captured the lights, which was reported by the BN. The mast, and possibly the Toughseet in the bottom left (white glow).

It was a joke that the red line is not the northern lights

Ah, OK.

Super picture though.

Deep frost here this morning. 

Folk hacking at their windscreens with bits of plastic.

Just use a jug of luke warm water ffs.

Quite like a bit of gentle scraping. Satisfying, almost therapeutic.

Or just use the car app to fire up the air con for 5 mins whilst you have a brew.

Scuppered my bike ride this afternoon. The lanes are far too icy. Got to the end of my road and thought balls to that. 

[Not in Crawley]

Sadly no ice today here, not really got light though!

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Proper day.

Cold, but doesn't feel as cold as it does five degrees warmer but wet and windy.

Chimney for open fire, or log burner flue?

I get up on the roof, un-clip the sections of the flue, and simply thrust a long, wire handled circular brush up and down.

Few minutes and done. Then empty the burner of the soot. Sorted.

Plenty to go at.

Ages back, we used at chimney chap to sort out our knackered gas flue.

Pretty sure it was Vic Crompton, who is more your way.

If you're still struggling, hire in an Indian- you can pay him 20% less.

😂😂😂

I’ll google Vic and see what happens.

I could just shove my 10 year old daughter up there with a brush, but my missus would get all leftie wokey on me

Just been at my lads footy training.

Fuck me you'd think we were in the middle of Siberia.

Soft fuckers shivering all over while the kids don't give a fuck

14 hours now out of the house, stars are clear and the air is great.

Beats the wind and rain all-day long.
