.... no not that one, this one:

Aberdeen, I went tobed at 1130 last night, as well as an enormous full moon, there was still a bright glow in the north west sky, and then when I left the house at 3am, it was still there. Is this an exciting feature of being so far north, ie does it actually not get properly dark at this time of year

And just think if the jocks would let us adjust our clocks it would never get dark an hour later.

Coyote, you know there is often a perfectly reasonable explaination for peoples actions that don't involve innuendo....

Yep, it's pretty much not dark up here. I went out at 11:30pm, and it was just starting to get darker.

it's called the gloaming and it's perfect for roaming
