Solstice

Since today is the 'longest day' (i.e the longest daytime period) its all down hill from here to Autumn and then Winter - good 'ere innit???

Re: Solstice

And judging by the weather forecast here we won't see the sunset...

Re: Solstice

UJ please don't remind us
Except for the fact it isn't freezing cold it could be October here this morning with a mist and general air of gloom

Re: Solstice

Go to Glastonbury, it's lovely, everyone goes around wishing people "Happy Solstice" cheers you up no end!

Re: Solstice

I am sure it is Twiz but I don't think Chloe my dog would like it

The summer solstice for me has often involved going onto the hills to watch the sunrise but not in this weather where the sun is nowhere to be seen...

Re: Solstice

There's dogs everywhere, usually lurchers, I don't mean the festival I mean the town, nicest people there, very interesting characters.

Re: Solstice

Just to cheer you up, the next 3 months are normally the best in the year.

Re: Solstice

Well it's quite nice here today, very warm in sunny Poole. I will be doing my yoga 'salute to the sun' in the garden again this year. No grandkiddies with me this time though. That was a laugh that year, they were all over the place. There are some fledgling blackbirds hopping around underneath the bushes for company

Re: Solstice

Twiz I have been to the town many times, I used to live in Somerset and went there often
Mary the sun is just coming out here too so I may get to see the sunset if not the sunrise ..

I have just been laughing at some fledgling blackbirds which hatched from a nest in my pyracantha . They have little tufts of baby feathers in all the wrong places and look quite funny

Re: Solstice

UJ according to reports it is going to be all downhill weatherwise for the next 10 years!
