So, it's the shortest day of the year today, from here on in the days get longer (and hopefully less wet!) even though it probably won't be noticeable for a few weeks. It's normally a "cozy" time of year, things starting to wind down toward the holiday break and food consumption steadily increasing as tins of yummy things start to appear. In past years, after work drinks and celebrations (usually starting at lunchtime and especially when working in London) have been the norm and it's often a time to relax a bit from the normal humdrum of the daily slog, stop and chat to that work colleague over a couple of Quality Street rather than rushing around as we normally tend to do. This year is different of course and we're all having to reconcile ourselves to a largely "DIY" holiday, isolated from family and friends, dependent on "Zoom" for essential communication, hey ho.. At least I learned at the weekend that my elderly Mum is lined up for a vaccine in January, just need to remain stoic for a couple more months and then that'll be one less thing to worry about!
