The Lighter Evenings are Here!

[Graham O]

Today's good news is that we have passed the earliest sunset and there is 1 minute more light tonight than there was last night. Spring is on it's way. We've got to wait until the 5th of January before the mornings get lighter, but it's a move in the right direction!

We'll know when spring is really on it's way as they'll be no more threads about Tesco's 3W LED torches.

At my latitude (oop narth) the sunset gets later beginning 18 December.

This is a great little site:

That is indeed heartening news. Roll on the lighter mornings. I couldn't believe it this a.m. when I looked at the clock and it said 7:03

The days are still getting shorter here but we've passed the earliest sunset too though so its at the expense of the sunrise.

so it's as good as the darkest day of the year?
