Why not start one? Of course it might win instead this one.

An additionally, sunrise continues to get later until early (2nd?) of January.

But thankfully the dinginess is at its peak, and therefore on the way out. Bog off back to the southern hemisphere I say!

That sounds an interesting trivia fact. Please tell of the reason for this.

I honestly have no idea why it's the case - I simply know that it is! For example, in my back garden, sunrise doesn't get earlier until the 3rd of January. The easiest source to read: http://www.sunrise-and-sunset.com/en/sun/united-kingdom/aberystwyth (apologies for the locality).

I expect the papers will blame either Corbyn or Cameron, depending upon which paper it is.

Thanks ian and interdit. I will retire to a dark place for several weeks and try to understand what exactly is going on.

No, it's your punishment for getting the day wrong.

Angles and shit. Basially because each day isn't actually 24 hours, they just average out at 24 hours over the course of a year. Of course a day is just off 24 hours, and a year is just off 365 days...
