Re: It feels wrong

Some days it's dark all day, Ffosse. Rain, damp, cold, miserable weather.

Think of those in Scandinavia and Iceland where they get only a few hours of daylight per day.

Well tomorrow is the shortest day of the year, so it will start to get lighter now.

Re: It feels wrong

It isn't helping it's dull and raining making it seem dark longer, after new year we will see it lightening up nicely and before long just weeks really we'll be looking at daffodils and sunny spring days. I always try to remember that in the depth of winter, makes it feel like a short temporary inconvenience !

Strange how we still talk of sunrise and sunset when it's us going round the sun not the other way round.

Today is the turning point in the darkest time of year. After today things will get better and better as the days get longer and lighter. Spring is coming!
