And a truly beautiful clear dawn here outside Derby as well.
Always feels like the real New Year when the days start to lengthen. Not some arbitrary date on a manmade calendar.
Aye, the nights will be fair drawing out....
Feels like she's hardly been gone...
Funny, sitting on the bus just now I thought "seems lighter this morning".
We made it, people. Let the good times roll.

Back when Stonehenge was our calendar (and waaay before then) tonight would've been the big party !
Thanks OP I feel better now!
Yay! Shortest day tomorrow and still wearing a t shirt to walk the dog.
The trees are going to get a shock when winter does start - I saw some new oak leaves out yesterday 😯

It feels like this, this year - just the winter to get through now, when ever that starts!

Nope,shortest day is today.
Let's have a party . Can't do today , but Friday is good. Anyone else in?
Always thought shortest day was 21st but apparently it can be 20th - 23rd (due to calendar year being . 4 days shorter than solar year).
Evenings have been drawing out for a while now (12th December was the earliest sunset), though the mornings are going to keep getting darker until the end of the year.
Shortest day tomorrow, though.... Great thread OP! 😀
Noooooooo!!!!!!!
Hope she's feeling better after her year off! 😀
Yay! cheeky post-work loops and not having to strip-clean your bike after every ride!
Can't wait.
You've had your turn, KiwiJohn.... time to share!
Hurrah!!! It's the true meaning of Christmas*!!!
*Other historically transient names for a midwinter celebration are available...
Nope,shortest day is today.
Tomorrow's the solstice, sometime around 1 a.m.
With luck I'll be at Avebury for dawn to join Terry the Druid, I might even take the bike.
