Absolutely mind-blown by the incredible tonight! Phone pictures from my back garden and a nearby field, in Northamptonshire. I have wanted to see this all my life, and never thought I’d manage to catch it. So happy!!!

Picture of the Aurora borealis, seen over the roof of a brick house. There are bright purple and blue streaks from left to right
Picture of an Aurora borealis, with some stars just visible. Pink, purple, and green diagonal, almost vertical streaks. The top of a roof is just visible at the bottom of the picture as a dark silhouette.

Well, today didn’t turn out quite as expected 😬

I’ve been feeling some swelling & pain in my left calf recently, & have worried it might be a recurrence of the deep vein thrombosis I had in 2019.

Was quite sore this morning so called GP at 2pm & got appointment for 3.15pm. In hospital in The Hague by 4.30pm, two ultrasound exams & more test by 5.30pm. Seen by four doctors & two nurses, home by 7.30pm.

Not 100% certain it’s a new DVT, but back to anti-coagulants it is 🤷‍♂️

@markmccaughrean I’m really sorry that this happened, both in 2019 and now. It is worrying stuff! But I’m really glad and relieved that you are in good hands, and that you got seen straight away. As other have said, that would likely not have been the case in the UK, even for something so urgent, so I’m glad that in the NL the healthcare system is working as it should!

Off to Leiden for WEAVE-LOFAR workshop! Looking forward to all the science, travelling on the Eurostar again, and catching up with old friends! 🤩
(And to eating all the cheesy pancakes, of course!)

@vicgrinberg oh, such a shame, it would have been lovely to catch up! I hope your travels go well! 🙂
