Longest Day

Yes, I know, all days are the same length of 24 hours... but believe me, a day with 20 hours of good daylight (like June) is a whole lot different from a day with only 8 hours of greyness (like December).

It doesn't get completely dark here at any time for a couple of weeks either side of the Summer Solstice. Here's our garden view at about 10.05pm yesterday (the white spot in the sky is the moon...!!!) - (and remember to click on any picture in the blog to see it full size)

What a picture Richard, and i'll bet the silence is deafening on a perfect evening like that.

The birdsong can be pretty deafening at times, but yes, the silence here is wonderful.
