Did anyone else watch the sun come up?
I can imagine a few of you were at Stonehenge.

Fuck no. I get up early enough as it is. I also don't feel the need to worship a deity to ask for a good harvest.

You'll regret those words when your harvest fails!

No worshipping from me. If I was into that sort of thing I'd have words about the side effects of things growing first, hayfever is more than a little unhelpful this year*. I was only up that early because of ruined sleep patterns, and then it was cloudy out...








*It seems ridiculous saying that considering what some of you are having to contend with :oops:

Hayfever is ridiculous this year, though.

I must admit I've been suffering pretty badly this year, most years I barely get any symptoms at all.

Same here, but my wife and eldest are suffering terribly with both needing medication where they've never really needed before (MrsREV is on anti-histamines and nasal sprays) and loads of people at work are saying how bad they've been plus a couple of mates who've never had it before have been bad. Is this how Interstellar starts?

Yep was a bit of a pollenpocolypse wasn't it.

There is an avenue of plane trees near us and I remember driving along one day a few weeks ago through something that almost resembled a pollen snowstorm there was so much of it. I don't think the plane tree seeds are actually supposed to be that bad for hayfever though - they're just particularly noticeable because of their size.
