    Bl**dy sunrise

    Hey fellas

    Did an allnighter to try and get my sleep pattern back to normal, and checked the BBC site to see what time the sunrise were. 8.25 it says, so i get ready and im out the door at 8am to get to local park which is 20 seconds down the street to try and capture the sunrise, and guess what! ITS COMPLETELY EFFIN LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wish the BBC wouldve gotten it a bit more accurate than that ffs
