Skywatch Friday: In the pink of the morning

Yes the sky really was these colours-that's what I snapped and how it looked. It's another Saturday sunrise in north Cheshire. The colours remind me of the 1985 classic Cocteau Twins' equally atmospheric track Pink, Orange, Red. Both the photo and the track leave me with a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye... Click to see today's other Skywatch Friday posts.

Two free Manchester events this weekend which sound fun (thanks for reminders from Emerald e-magazine) are:

Saturday 22 Feb., 6.00-10.00 p.m. Beehive Mill, Jersey Street, M4
Decades of subcultures, from mods to beatniks, inform this exhibition and fashion show. The show, 1978, is a journey though Manchester’s cultural aesthetic, curated by local art students as part of Manchester Fashion Week’s pre-launch series

Sunday 23 Feb., 2.00-4.00 p.m. MadLab, Edge Street, M4
Manchester Girl Geeks’ Show and Tell party, a regular get together for women in science and technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) to share their passions and interests.
