You can have GMT in summer if you want. This is the joy of axial tilt.

 

[TiedbyChris]

Axial tilt - don’t like the sound of that!

Evening all - did we have a good day and did everyone leave their duvets eventually?

Ugh... Yes, left the duvet. Relaxing is not really my strong point anyway.

Well, all in all I actually had a quite efficient day, except for: "the dryer dying on me" incident.
But I managed to order some hopefully warm and comfortable socks!

What about you?

 

[TiedbyChris]

I once bought Alpaca socks ….. great until I washed them!

Good day thanks - had a lovely late lunch and catch up with a long term friend

 

[TheWorldBuilder]

There will be aurora again tonight. For Cat it's probably already happening.

Well.. yeah - but the weather is being Danish, so I have not seen the blue sky, the sun or any stars for 4 days now..

The aurora is surely just teasing us all.

I’m sure they said on telly the cloud cover would stuff any chances of seeing it from SE England (sadly)

 

[deft]

To be honest, we’re not even convinced there’s a sky at all this time of year in these parts.

 

[TheWorldBuilder]

Yes, the rain is passing north of Sjælland in a long snaky sort of weather front.

The sun is rather active, we will get other chances.

Same..I am sure the blue sky was a fake memory..

Under different circumstances I would probably have been out chasing the light, but alas it is a normal school day tomorrow, and even though I might not get a full night's sleep - it is still better than of I had been out driving for hours.

And, no sleep turns me into an extremely grumpy zombie penguin.

 

[TheWorldBuilder]

Penguin? How do you avoid chasing yourself, Cat?

 

[Cat]

Penguin? How do you avoid chasing yourself, Cat?

Good question.. I think it is the zombie factor that equals it all out.

Oh, and last time I saw the aurora it looked like this:

 

[TheWorldBuilder]

Great shot, pinpoint stars too. Was that from your house?

 

[Cat]

No - I walked to the nearest bridge, I have a forest house in the dark sky park, that is the best place to be when something like this happens!

 

[Cogan]

Well.. yeah - but the weather is being Danish, so I have not seen the blue sky, the sun or any stars for 4 days now..

I've always called this type of weather Scanian weather (Skånskt väder), but it was once East Denmark so yes, Danish weather it is!

 

[Cat]

Godmorgen all ye wonderful people!

Anyone got lucky and saw the aurora?

 

[deft]

I saw the inside of my eyelids?

Godmorgen!

 

[ShyGuy68]

God morgen!

Nope had a long day yesteday, so I was in bed sleeping

Same - my fluffy down duvet ate me... It is not that I did not want to chase the light, but.. I could not!

It was like being eaten by a big, wonderful and warm flødeskumskage! (It makes sense, I promise!)

Also, the prospect of a minimum 1,5 hour drive each way - with no promise of the weather getting better, that was not exactly something that made me do a happy dance.

Oooh, that sounds yummy enough to lick the cream off!

I am gonna stay in my flødeskumskage duvet as long as possible!

 

[ShyGuy68]

I still have to experience the aurora in person. Living in the city with no car doesn't always make it easy.

But quite a few years ago I had the pleasure of doing some star gazing in the outback near Uluru, without any light pollution at all, that was amazing

 

[TiedbyChris]

flødeskumskage - Has to be the word of the day if not the week!

Didn’t get to see anything myself so it’s still on the bucket list.

Morning all

 

[deft]

Of course, the sky is beautifully clear here this morning… 12 hours too late!

 

[Wand3rlust]

Too close to the light pollution capital of London. Wouldn't see it from here. Unless there's a black out...

 

[Wand3rlust]

Oh, and morning
