| It's only lasted for 11 hours so far. So much for it being the longest day.  _________________  |

| Oh goody! That means tomorrow it'll get light at 4am and night will fall at nearly 10pm.

| I can't load the website I usually use to tell you all when the earliest sunset and latest sunrise are in Britain Rest assured though that neither happens today.

| Such a depressing experience. A British spring is so ugly - mud instead of grass, chilly, bare trees, untanned people, and getting lighter and relentlessly lighter so there's no escape from how appalling it all is.
As an insomniac May and June are especially difficult. August is really when things become more reasonable as regards light. I love the heat - hotter the better. If not for that I'd be fine with the cosy feeling of breakfasting in the dark. |

| It must've been put there by aliens. There's no way human beings could've built that. _________________ |

| Each of those rocks weighs 15 stones. And yet they managed to bring them there, all the way from the other end of Sheffield. _________________ |
