Summer Solstice: It’s the Longest Day!

[Nitefly]

Wow this came around fast I thought it was worth depressing you all by reminding you that the long evenings are now on their way out - yey!

Does anyone care? Looking forward to the Autumn months? Any good ideas for Christmas presents this year?

In b4 the “good thread would read again A++”

Crap

And my fuzzy brain feels like a typical late April... The extended winter, thanks to two lots of Beast Of The East, has completely screwed the 2018 decline of Seasonal Affective Disorder symptoms for me. :/

Still 3 months of light evenings left. I don’t like going to bed in daylight anyway. Feels weird.

 

[Yaayuh!]

I care enough to tell you no, i do not care. This happens every year.

Indeed, it has come around very quickly this year. It's one of my favourite days of the year simply knowing that from tomorrow onwards it's getting a little bit darker every day. I love the dark autumn and winter nights.

Really? I always wondered why people like dark nights and winter.

I'm not a fan of really hot weather, but give me lots of daylight and a bit of warmth any day. Last night I was walking the dog at 10:30 in shorts and a T-shirt and it still wasn't completely dark.

Being addicted to gaming, the darker ambient light makes it easier to see what's on screen.

I get totally rekt by heat, so I can't wait for cooler weather. The forecast for next week is brutal tho.

Summer solstice? It was snowing on Cairngorm last night.

Just get better curtains

 

[something daft already!!]

I must get my hippy on, dance around Stonehenge and make some blood sacrifices. It's traditional.

Just get better curtains

Hahah that's one solution but no, that feels too weird. Sitting in the house with the curtains drawn. Does not compute. Only shut curtains when sleeping.

Does anyone care?

Only because it's my sister's birthday... but she's a **** and I don't talk to her any more. So no, I don't give a toss!!

It means I don't accidentally stay up too late playing games, as my evenings really only start when it gets dark.
Plus my car looks cool with all the dash and console lights on...

Autumn has become my favourite season - it can be beautiful with all of the colours.

The dark evenings are creeping back!

Albeit almost on the south coast I was walking back from a work meeting around 10:30 last night and it was still broad daylight.

EDIT: Actually was a bit before 10:30 but not hugely.

Oh great.....

Sad times, down hill from today onwards! I've enjoyed being able to go cragging in the evenings after work and it being warm and sunny till late.

Is that another form of dogging?
