Flaming June?
It’s a myth I tell you- a total load of lies!

June just rains and never stops,
Thirty days and spoils the crops.

Exactly the same here, typical TT weather even though there is no TT this year.
It’s the same every year, glorious weather through May then mist murk and wet first two weeks of June, so that the marshals spend all day sitting on the mountain looking miserable just in case it clears up and they can race. Usually, it doesn’t, and they can’t.
Why they don’t hold it 2 weeks earlier is beyond me.

We have just seen the partial eclipse looking through the Bull’s solar filters he got from Astronomy Ireland
Great fun seeing a bite out of our star
