Shortest day the 21st yesterday which is always a good feeling that we are on our way.

Don't really notice a big diffference till February, but a minute a day now is a big difference for many

Today is the shortest day of the year. Hence the thread I guess.

Aye, if you're a dirty rotten Southerner. Today is 1 second shorter than yesterday for the good people of Sunderland.

Leap year coming too.

Means I have to work an extra day as I'm retiring at end of Feb.

Noticed that when sorting shift rotas out for next year. I thought the solstice was the 21st too, but I guess it varies for the same reason we need the leap day?

All the layby's and back roads around Stonehenge been blocked for a couple of days. Going back to '80s 'Battle of the Beanfield' policing. Not a positive comment on our current social perspectives imo

 

[LynchMob]

Always 21st. Well it is down here.

Next year is a leap year, so shortest day light hours are today!

Don’t mind winter weather it’s the friggin dark that gets me . Love the midweek summer evenings to get jobs done and frees up the weekend.

I’ll be peering across western skies at 5:00pm soon to see the every increasing slivers of light. Joy.
