I've only just noticed...

... 11pm and it's still virtually light outside, a good ten days shy of the longest day.

The nights will be drawing in soon...

SHADDUPP!! Creep back in tae ye wee bothie an' cook yer gruel, ye Viking-spawned curmudgeon!

I'm originally from even further North and on visits at this time of year, right up to September, it is light at midnight. During August, when I used to go more often, it never really got dark, just an eery sort of dusk, even at 1.00 in the morning.

Not quite that far, about 20 miles south of John O'Groats!

I can vouch that it was light and bright here in Antrim this morning at 3.45am.... I was hanging out of my window telling the rooks to kindly please shut their beaks. Didn't work though so I had to 'go outside and have a word'. :nono:
And that didn't work either.....:thumbsdown:

Yes, it was still very light dahn sarf at that time, Soba - I would've been hanging out of my window telling the arses in the streets to kindly please shut their gobs, but it's never worked yet, and with a whole month of the Weird Cup ahead of us, I'll just have to get used to the late-night/early a.m. bawling, drunken singing, clapping and yowling.
