Happy December 21st
At long last it's here one of my favourite days of the year - The Winter solstice. This day has a massive psycological bearing on me as I hate the winter and today represents the shortest day of the year and the longest night. As from today the days get longer and the nights get shorter as we head back towards the summer and the chance to play cricket and all those other things we love doing. Good ridance winter hello Spring and summer unless of course you live in the southern Hemisphere and you're looking now at the long haul into winter!
For us summer now approaches and I can't wait!

Its strange how little people knew it was the shortest day when i was talking about it today. If im right its about 14 weeks until the start of the cricket season?
