I can already notice it when I have my breakfast at 7:30am. My whole living room was getting showered with sunshine but now there is a slice of shade on the southern side of the room.

As the nights grow longer, Laserguy will grow stronger.

Here the change in daylight length is 0435 now 0456 and 2137 now it is 2125, so slight but starting to be noticeable especially the morning change. I will certainly notice the difference from 3 weeks ago when I go on duty around 0400 on Saturday morning.

From about a week's time onwards we achieve proper darkness in this location. No more lingering twilight.

It still gets virtually dark anyway so this is no real milestone IMO.
