Sorry to hear that. Oh yes, due to the very bright summers, good
curtains are essential up north!

I grew up in the north of England and according to the internet, the
latest sunset in Newton Aycliffe this year was 21:46.  (In comparison,
here in Guildford it was 21:22.)

Helsinki this year, sunset 22:50.  I went to Archipelacon in Mariehamn
back in June 2015.  Mariehamn is on the Aland islands, a good way west of
Helsinki.  I remember walking back to my hotel around eleven o'clock at
night and the sun was in my eyes.
