Thankfully the shortest day of the year is passing. The day at my latitude is only 9hrs 34 mins long.
I hope all you good people in the bottom of the globe[^] are enjoying the extra daylight because I want it back.
Some of you at the very bottom must be having a long day,
So Im interested to see whose got the longest day today or just long it is (the day that is.. Out of the gutter  )

(only thing is, the magpie season cometh !!!)

Which means eyes painted on the back of your head I presume. They not too common here.
The father in law got attached once while out for a cycle ride. He went home got the gun and blow the nest to pieces.

yes - and where I live (as opposed to where I was born) they are rather protective of what we'd call 'feral pests' at home ... (that and being able to shoot from a moving racing bike is a tad difficult)

I read that wrong!
I thought you said the day was 9 minutes 34 seconds long - 23 hours 50 mins of darkness. :brrrrr:
Glad I was wrong!

If it's was that bad I would have moved years ago. Not a winter fan. Only 14c today brrrrrr
|
|

If it's any consolation, it's the longest day today, but grey, overcast and about the same temperature!
I just stuck my temperature gun out the kitchen window and it says it's 11.9C out there...

Still morning for you now. So I should imagine you'll get above 14.
I the ideal world I'd like to spend summer here( 25 to 30) and six months in somewhere like Noosa Heads in Aussie for winter...
Just got to figure out how to achieve it...

Go north far enough and only 9 minutes of daytime is a real possibility.![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

...or far enough south.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
|
|

... or if fast enough, go East.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

Go far enough and you get 6 month days, and 6 month nights. I just didn't believe anyone wants to live there!

As it seems just now, my day will be extremely long comparing to yours...24:00 
I definitely would like a 9:34 day...

9 hrs 34 of daylight. Changed it to make it clearer. I won't go into the length of a work day, because we don't work to a strict clock so varies.

I understood, that you talking about daylight, that's why the joke icon next to 24:00...
As today we have 14:23 of daylight from sunrise to sunset (which means a bit more even)...

Hmmmm similar latitudes. We're one of the few place on the planet that has land on the direct opposite side of the planet. South of Spain somewhere..

I'm having six hours and four minutes of night at the moment, and I'd like to keep it that way.

It's been a loooong days night and I've been working like a dog...
Ok, that day wasn't actually long, it was hard.
But somehow that song popped up in my head immediately.
The second was Nights in White Satin...
Not bad for random popping songs!
It's also my longest day of the year by the way.
Or it's officially the 24th, something like that.
It's all just pretty darn long and I wish they were just a few hours shorter...

I could stand them being a little shorter still, as today marks the beginning of the warm season. It was only 118°F yesterday...

It has been 104+ for the month of May in India! 
I think places in the Northen plains of India and the southern plateau got up to 118 degrees F.

I don't know, maybe it's because I'm just used to it, but somehow this projection of the globe doesn't look right, doesn't feel right.
Anyways, longest day (yesterday) at my location: 16h 10m (shortest day: 8h 15m).
Not soo much, if I remember the time I stayed in Reykjavík a few years ago, I got up to 21h daytime in summer and almost none in winter.
