Longest day

Post by ccreds »

Today is the longest day.

10:34pm the lightest for the longest will Lerwick Shetlands

9:14pm the earliest darkness descends in the UK today will be in Dover in Kent.

Doesn't really get dark here - hasn't for a week or so. Not as bad as when I was in St Petersburg though - sun shining at 1am is well fucked up.

Can I assume that Stonehenge will be closed to the public today ?

It's called the Simmer Dim up in Shetland.

I went up a good few years back.

Gets a dusk around 2am and then sun is back up about an hour later

The great American hero in the film, Wayne, avoided war service.

No sleep on longest day, just done 1400 km in 14 hours and manoeuvred 40ft load on to the last ferry

Joyous otherwise it was another night in the truck

Will head out on deck for the crossing
