Hey,

Just wondering whether anybody else is planning to go the Summer Solstice at Stonehenge? It's on Sunday (20th June), and runs through into Monday morning.

For those who don't know about it - Stonehenge is open all night, and there should be a nice sunset and sunrise. Free entry, but the bus is £9 return (buses run out of Salisbury from early evening til about 1am, then buses run from early morning right through to lunch I think). Parking is available, but traffic last year was horrendous:

Now that's what I call a tailback!

Anyway - anybody thinking of going? I'm going with my friends, but will be spending much of the evening shooting. Would be cool to meet up with fellow TPers for a bit - it's a long night! :)


You do get some rather odd sorts there though!

I would love to, but won't be able to (gotta work)... the chance to get some images from one of the oldest astronomical observatories... man... that would be great...
