Are you into the mystics or voodoo or summat?
I'll have to give you that one, 4Stands....
despite not getting the place-name for the second time this week..... won't be so lenient next time.
I suppose I might have thrown people with the “translated into English” bit as I'm presuming it's actually in Welsh.....
Started in 1980, it takes place in the Welsh town of Llanwrtyd Wells every June.
Your Question for # 237 is.......

well it was still tonight last night when I posted it!!!!this morning.....it was still dark anyway.....errrr, yep, next question.
A natural phenomenon occurs several times a year in this country, and is watched by many, physically enjoyed by a few. It's spectacular nature is dependent on the wind direction, the moon and scouring although other factors may be more important. It will probably next happen this weekend. What is it?

on that note, we have an amazing view this week of several planets. Mars (just to the left of the moon at the moment) is a near as it has been for many years, and further to the west are Venus and Jupiter, Venus being the brighter of the two. Mercury is also visible just ater sunset lower towards the sea(if you are in Blackpool) Saturn will also appear after the weekend, very close to where the moon is on monday and tuesday.
It is not a phenomenon in the sky yeni clue

Well, if it isn't anything occurring in the 'sky', it's got to be either on land or sea, so I'll take a guess at 'High Tide'..........

Post by yenilira on Mar 8, 2012 16:07:53 GMT 1
From what I can remember reading, the Atlantic season generally commences around June(?) until November(?) I believe the Pacific starts earlier. Though I must admit the 'season' in my house is all the year round!

It makes sense to let a (very) late night question carry over until breakfast as there isn't that many, if any, answer the Q or on the board even between the hours of 11pm and say, 8am, am I right? Your post, 4Stands, at 01:41 this morning must be a first! The vast majority, if not all, sensible folk will be snuggled up in their scratchers after midnight.... So it's not a case of 'extending the rules' as you put it, it's a case of being sensible and applying 'common sense'. Anyway, I've never seen you answer a question after the midnight hour............?
