..again, an hour earlier than us for it to get dark... and an hour later for it to get light.. thus far we have the most daylight hours...

ah..so I think my supposition is right then ..being further in the Northern hemisphere gives us longer daylight hours ..at least in summer... you're sunset is just a little later than ours... and we're both in the Far Northern Hemisphere
I've just asked AI what time sunset will be on Christmas day here... and it said 3.54pm and sunrise will be 8.07 am ........and just as an example I asked what time sunset will be in Alabama US.. and it said 4.46pm ..sunrise will be at 6.49am .... giving 2 hours more daylight than the UK in winter.....
Australia of course is exactly the opposite to all of us..their winter being our summer and Vice versa....

9:20 pm but closer to 9:40 pm. I hate the sun setting so late. But then I dislike summer. Shoot, it is still spring!! I like dark cool cozy evenings. Oh, well only about 12 weeks to go until autumn more or less.

Sunset at my location today was 9:06 pm. I'm at 40.5* north latitude.
London, UK is 51* north latitude.....so yes, being further north the summer days are longer there.
I once visited Iceland in the summertime and 9:00 pm there looked and felt to me like 4:00 pm where I live.
