What planet are you living on? Sunday afternoon was warm and sunny all day.

"Sunday afternoon was warm and sunny all day."?? Hmm!! How lucky YOU must be, Aggy, cause most places I know of (i.e. THE REAL WORLD) 'sunday afternoon' ONLY LASTS ABOUT SIX HOURS not *all day* !!

All day means while the sun is up. The sun did not set until about 9pmish (just before my original reply) so that would have been at least 9 hours from 12pm taking in the early evening as well.

Aggy, did you READ/UNDERSTAND the SECOND word of my QUOTE from YOUR post, i.e. 'afternoon'?? This would, naturally, exclude any 'morning' and 'evening' hours ... so *SIX HOURS* max!!
 And, as some might refer/have referred to "after five dress" implying Evening starting at 5p.m., 'afternoon' might last just FIVE HOURS!!
 In either case, certainly not 'all day'!!

By the historical definition afternoon is after midday all the way until just before sunset, and then after sunset it's the proper evening.
5pm isn't evening when it's still bright all the way till 9pm and in fact there's enough light to reed by until 1030pm.
So 9 hours and all day sticks.
Night is when there isn't enough light to read a book by and in the summer that depending on the month lasts from about 1000pm to 12am till 0330 to 0400am when the sun starts to rise again, and that period is called morning.
You probably don't understand the meaning of Day and are mixing it up with Morning. Day can include morning, afternoon, evening, and even night all at the same time or it can also mean when it's light, as opposed to night being when it's dark, with morning, afternoon, and evening all being counted together as day depending on how bright evening is.
