Happy Fathers Day and Happy Summer Solstice 2026

The 21st June 2026 shares two special occasions, indeed there may be more, as you may be celebrating a birthday or anniversary? I wish all readers a happy day and the opportunity to enjoy a helping of low carb lemon ice cream ... virtually speaking of course! 


Sunday 21st June 2026 here in the UK, and many other countries, we celebrate Father's Day. It is usually held on the third Sunday of June and is a day to honour fathers and father figures, such as grandfathers and fathers-in-law. Many people make a special effort to visit their fathers or to send them a card or gifts. More information can be read here

Sunday 21st June 2026 (in the Northern Hemisphere) is the summer solstice. Yes it is the longest day of the year, meaning the day with the most hours of daylight. The picture above shows Stonehenge, long associated with the solstice, and you can read more about its history and story here

Happy Summer Solstice!!
I see that we celebrate Fathers Day on the same day as you do in the UK although Mothers Day we don't. Interesting.

It's Father's Day here too. I'd love the lemon ice cream.

Tom said it all. Happy Father's Day from the U.S., too. And happy summer solstice to all in the northern hemisphere.
