I'm in Scotland. Today it's sunny with some clouds briskly passing overhead. You can tell it's sunny because people come out into the street and stare upwards in awe at the big yellow round thing that feels hot in the sky.

Children of the sun, Children of the suuun!!
I read an article on the Okney Islands yesterday. I'd like to see them some time, also play St. Andrews. A friend of mine got to St. Andrews. Said the wind pushed the rain vertical, but they played their 18 holes anyway. Another friend brought me a golf ball from there.

I've been to St Andrews. S'nice. Also had OK weather when I go, at least better than I get on the West coast. (Lapses into US modeYeah...west side livin...) However, I'd need to sleep with someone very important to ever get to play the courses. Much more fun to walk across the first tee and slow everything up.

EXACTLY opposite? I doubt it. since the Earth is 3/4 water, the exact opposite point from most other points is in an ocean somewhere. Most of the remaining places are inhospitable sites.
Get a globe andcheck it out yourself.
The UK's opposite point is just south of the Antipodes Islands off New Zealand.
My own, Pennsylvania, USA's opposite is in the Indian Ocean, Southwest of Australia.
Funny that our opposite points are that "close"...

Well, here in Vancouver all we mostly get is rain between about October and now (which is good, because you don't have to shovel it). Yesterday it was around 15, nice and warm (oh, 15 celsius which is about, um, *Chimaera thinks hard, something times something plus 32?* 60 F maybe?). I'm just thankful I don't live in Prince Rupert (northern B.C.) where they got over a meter (3 feet) in twelve hours a while back.
