    • well last night was shortest night and today is the longest day

      the sun was closest to the tropic of cancer at 05:04 today. Alas although the sun was just up I could not see it :(

      From this day on the sun will not be out for as long.

      And so people might now see this as the decline of the sun, one could have a story of the year as comprising as two halves

  • My gf works for English Heritage and has been on as a press officer

    • not really

      traditionally if you see the year split into two and anthropomorphise them then you have two male twins, or tanists, who both try to win the goddesses affections (the goddess meaning the whole)

      This forms the basis for many different old religeons and tales.

      creakyknees @alcxxk | 21 Jun '13, 12:49 | X
      • i swear i hadn't seen this fucken post when I wrote mine below about day and night being twins

  • this weather has convinced me that the sun is getting complacent

    I say it's time for us to try a different source of heat and light going forward

  • I'm pleased to see they're getting rid of the road that runs right next to Stonehenge

    (not the 303, the other one, with the car park)

    pieces_of_reece | 21 Jun '13, 12:45 | X
  • I think that the most important thind for people is to be aware of it, and what it means.

    If you miss the sunrise then you can catch up with the sunset.

    Its just important that you mark it/acknowledge it in some way.

    The only real negative is to be totally unaware that this point of the year has passed

    creakyknees | 21 Jun '13, 12:51 | X
    • also it's a fallacy to say that the year gets 'worse' after this

      we must celebrate night as day, for they are twin siblings
