TIDES & TURNINGS

Because the moon was at its closest point to the earth in 20 years last night it looked unusually large and bright. With the proximity of the moon we have also had massive spring tides, and Poole Harbour was practically drained of water this afternoon.

Next Sunday the clocks go forward and suddenly it will still be light at 7.30pm.

I've nothing very profound to say about all this - just that I like it!
