Lovely video for the season Zeph--as this shortest day and longest year of the night reminds--or 'tother way round is it?--of last and first things.
Heed not how hope believes
And fate disposes...
The book of toil is read,
The long day closes.

Nice clip, BTP, though sombre.

Longest night tonight - best for seeing stars!

Mysteriously, Blogger is hiding the comments on this post. Oh, how it does love to give me these little tests....

...now it seems to be showing the comments again, sigh.

While we're reflecting on long days closing, here's a lovely clip from 1959 of a very young Davy Graham. This astonishing guitarist died earlier this week, but his musical legacy will go on for a long, long time.

Love this, specially the owl. Had let it slip in my mind that tonight is the longest night. No chance of stars - all cloud blown in from the arctic.

Zeph, what I'd meant to be saying was that that the first video you've posted is lovely. (And even better on second look...) Thanks! And for Davy Graham as well.

Cloudy night, no stars here either Mimi...probably easier viewing weather if you're an owl.
