The lengthening days

Spring and summer are on their way. The days are undeniably longer than they were a month or even a week ago, with there still being a large amount of daylight available at 5:20pm; it's another twenty-five minutes after then when it becomes dark. It won't be long before both warm weather and evening walks in the light return.

The clocks in the United Kingdom go forward on the last Sunday in March, extending the days even further; this will occur on the 31st of that month for 2013, and by then we'll have entered spring. With it snowing again, I'm sure many people are looking forward to the end of winter!

  1. Sun sets around 5:45pm here. It's crazy. I personally love the darker days.

  2. they are getting longer! I notice it when I come home at the end of the day - there's just a little more light every week :)

    1. I like the extra light! Late afternoon/sunset is my favourite time of day, though. :)
