I always thought that days were all the same length ... about 24 hours, I think.:confused: The only "longsest day" that comes to mind is some crappy American movie about how the yanks won the war :)

I love being pedantic ... it's a result of all those years I wasted in university ... I may celebrate the summer solstice by frollicking naked in my garden. This will make my neighbours upchuck and scare away the skunks and the racoons.:D

Silly? You mean I should have used "cavort" instead of "frollick"?:confused:

And on a pedantic note, it should be "daft ******" instead of "silly sod". That's what my gran used to call me; and she would have known 'cause she was from Ossy.:D

Just noticed this on the BBC website; batten down the hatches :eek:


People across the UK are being warned to brace themselves for unusually stormy weather as high winds and heavy rain are forecast for Sunday.
The storms - with winds which could reach 65mph across northern Britain - are expected to peak around midday. The worst affected areas are expected to be north Wales and northern England, but Northern Ireland and southern Scotland may also be affected.


All times are GMT. The time now is 14:32.
