Nights are fair drawin' in

Nights are fair drawin' in

With just less than a fortnight to go until the winter solstice I’m really looking forward to the gradual shift in the length of the day.

Really noticed it this year as I seem to be up and out of the house sometime near the end of lighting up time if I’m running late. The evenings seem to have been dark for ages, but the mornings have just crept up on me.

With less than 7 hours of daylight that equates to more than two thirds of the day in darkness! Can’t imagine what it’s like for them further north with several months of darkness. Probably freak me out!
