Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

Can you see it where you are? I can. Lovely.

Its the last time we get a full moon on the summer solstice for 70 years. Last time it happened was 1967, the year I was born.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I've got too many trees around me. I'll pop out later and try again.

The sunset was lovely.

Just crossed the bridge over the Thames on Abingdon. The moon is low in the sky, golden behind a wisp of cloud. Beautiful.

Gotta love a full moon - the downside is that other stargazing is impacted by the brightness but it's always a pleasure to enjoy the majesty of a clear full moon

Another month or so and Perseid season kicks off although the peak isn't until August

Can't see any stars round me because of the light pollution, so a beautiful full moon is a minor thrill.

It would have been cool if it had turned pink for the occasion.

Although a blood red moon is apparently the harbinger of the Old Ones, and we would be devoured by Cthulhu.

The name refers to the full moon that kicks off the Strawberry harvest, unrelated to the colour of it

A strawberry moon is the first full moon of the strawberry season (which starts on 15th June). It does not refer to the colour. It happens to drop on the longest day this year...as it did in 1967 and will do again when most of us are pushing up daisies....

This has been driving me nuts today.

Keep reading about how the strawberry moon and summer solstice only coincide once every 70 years, with the last one being in 1967.

And im sitting screaming internaly

"Do the fucking arithmetic !! Thats only been 49 years, not fucking 70"

Anyhoo, happy summer

I have a perfect view from my bedroom window. It's behind a slow-moving,lattice effect blanket of cloud and looks lovely.

I'm flying overnight above the clouds, though it's still hot and sunny daylight atm. Looking forward to it as last night was great.

Rare to get a full moon at summer solstice plus strawberry makes it once in a lifetime.

There was definitely a full moon effect over the last couple of days. One more night of the pull... and feeling fruity.
