Also, I was speaking to my uncle, and it sounds like he might be open to bringing me and my other cousin along with him on one or more of his many trips to Northern New England in summer and winter.
We were at a church function yesterday and my brother was starting to get tipsy and shouting. We of course made a quick exit.

Mortifying.

Drinking kicks ass!!! My ancestry is hungarian, Plus I am 95kg, therefore I can handle mass quantities of booze that would put the average person in a coma. I can put away a 750ml bottle of 10% sparkling wine and 6 beers and deadset wake up fine next morning, no headaches, nothing. My culture is centered around food and adult beverages... lets just say during my 3 week visit to Hungary in 2012, I put on 5 kilos and drank enough beer, spirirts and wine to flood the Pacific Ocean, most of it offered by hosts - and if you refuse the booze and food, it is considered rude.... it's the European way

That's why I said "late for us". Still, light at 8:30 is a lot better than a few months ago. Nice to still be able to go outside. Light at 10 pm would be weird, but I wouldn't mind up to 9:15 or so. Sunset at Florida will be much earlier than here, let alone in Northern Ireland.

If I'm ever at a wedding, I usually drink a lot, because they are so boring, and the booze is the only good thing about it. I usually decline invitations to weddings though.. they're just slightly more entertaining than funerals (and I don't go to funerals either unless I knew the person personally).

I don't usually make a fool of myself when I'm drunk, I don't think anyway. I don't really know to be honest.

This calculator shows differently. Sun angle is much lower (right most number under Az / El)

ESRL Global Monitoring Division - GRAD Group

A difference between a sun angle of 21° and 52°
