Really ? wont that spoil the view ? How do Scandilandi's feel about it ? In the UK people go mad & protest over everything. Its a shame some buildings cant be blended in or camouflaged somehow ?

it will be a log cabin power plant.

That feels SO end of the day

Beginning or the end. Shrugging

I'm not sure it matters that much when the sun doesn't really rise at all. Razz

Okay, that was such a depressing statement. How you folks avoid going bonkers I just don't know.

by Bluebottle Mon Dec 21, 2015 1:34 am

Yeah, no. We don't really have that here. We have.. at least 3-4 hours of sun a day at worst. It still gets properly dark though, but nothing like all the way up north.

This map describes it quite well.

Everything north of the green line looses all sun. (Actually a bit further south, as the sun appears, but only by optical illusion.) And then it only gets darker an darker.

I take it Tromso is Norc-land? I take back my statement about wondering how you all avoid going bonkers. Some folks don't bother avoiding it.

Northern lights in here. Of course I missed it. Rolling Eyes

Man, I wonder if people in Tromso ever get tired of looking at the Northern Lights. Like, if you live with them your whole life, is it just "oh look, another stunningly beautiful atmospheric phenomenon ... I wonder if there's anything good on TV?"

Thats the thing, people get complacent, as they say, Familiarity breeds contempt. If you see something often enough you become immune............. unlike the thing in Pettys fridge ??
