No, barring astronomical accidents I think it will be about the same size as any other day overall. Though the equinox is on Tuesday morning. So the division into daylight and night will be more equal then.

Jim
I have an Acorn RiscOS4 Computer switched to my Windows Machine utilising common Keyboard, Monitor and Prnter/Scanner. I like Risc OS far better than Windows for most things but the Web. Old progs I typed into the Beeb 20 years ago from BeeBug and Acorn User Mags. will still run on the latest Risc OS Machines via BBC Basic. Just click on them and away they go. In those 20 years I have upgraded three times. I am thinking about networking the two machines but the cards for the Acorn/Castle side of the duo is on the expensive side.

Lou - Your personal space says:
' Helloooooo! I'm Lou and I am a seventeen year old school girl from London. I'm studying for my A2 Levels in: francais, '
In charge of computers at 9 years old is going some. I was still giving pencils out when I was 12.
Jim - My first Beeb had the WordWise chip installed from new (1983). My brother in law also bought one. He still talks about Wordwise as the easiest and best word processor he has used. He's moved on to Windows now but is looking at getting the Virtual A5000 software if it will run WordWise.

At that age I used to be a computer monitor at school (which meant I knew more about computers than the the teachers) however I still enjoyed playing with both mud and slugs... draw your own conclusions...

Nervous? Well, just curious. But I'm afraid it won't be very surprising, nor delighting.
