Good news to hear, I bet it is the monsterous AR that left us 2 weeks ago that is starting to creep into view?

Thanks Nigella and yes things are quite-literally "looking-up."

Yes Alexandra, you could well be right and let's hope it does put on a decent show and one of the SDO images is showing some flaring from it..

Touch wood..
