It doesn't get any shorter than this...

Darkness falls on the shortest day of the year... December 21, 2011.  After many grey and dreary days, the sun has returned to pick up our spirits once again.  The forecasters all say there will be no "White Christmas" this year... so if the choice is clouds and rain or sunshine, you know which one I'll be picking!  The best news is that the days start getting longer again, working toward Spring and the return of the colour green to the environment!  It's only 4 more sleeps to the big day now... have you got all your shopping done?
