There's a thing going around on social media called the ten year challenge - post a picture of yourself now and ten years ago.

Solstice approaches. The darkness is full, and with a little bit of luck and some funky early morning dancing, the Sun will be reborn unto us. As indeed it always is; it's science after all, not magic. The magic is in what you do with the year that comes with new light. It's going to... Continue Reading →
There's something unsociable about social media that doesn't want to share...

In days of myth and legend the births, deaths and marriages of Kings and Princes were presaged by comets. Today, on International Happiness Day and Vernal Equinox there's an Eclipse of our Sun by a Supermoon, and the Substation Druid makes his workplace farewells in the local hostelry. Today, more than any other day leading up to... Continue Reading →

Be it Spike Milligan, Fred Wedlock or your grandparents, they had a part in shaping how you turned out. It's natural to miss them even when, for those cultural icons,... Continue Reading →
Two years since Neil Armstrong, first human to walk on the Moon, died. In his memory his family asked us all to wink at the Moon on the anniversary of his death, but tonight it's a bit harder - being dark Moon. So here's a wink from the other eye, and a pic I took... Continue Reading →
