The fact that it was very hot made me sweat as i was seeing the plasma loops on the suns edges! I hoping for more intense solar activity in the near future!

Bloke get yourself a good wide brimed sun hat and a towel to drape over
your head, it will increase the contrast IMO 10 fold. But yup isn't she a
sight. Yes you can go out an spend the bucks and get a double stack.
But in reality a standard PST will give you heaps of enjoyment. Wait until
a nice big sunspot/group comes into view you'll see some fireworks on
the limb and some more funky bits as it transits.
enjoy
