Default Shortest Day.

Well tomorrow is the shortest day. It looks like we are over the worst and the lighter evenings start to move in..

But only lighter evenings until Jan 5th when the sunrise times also become earlier and it gets lighter at both ends! Something to do with the odd ellipse the planets/sun move in.:xmas-smiley-005:

This is quite useful for world time - date - sunrise info

Roll on being able to wash the car in 'T' shirts and shorts again.

Me too!

Have to admit, that once the clocks go back, I count the days to this point, because I know that as from tomorrow, Summer is on the way!
