Its amazing how logically I know that from Midwinter light returns by minutes each day, but it seems like I notice it all of the sudden. Just one day, I look up and realise that there is light at a time where there wasn't before. 

I took down most of the curtains throughout the house. Possibly not the smartest thing ever when the term "working" can only loosely be applied to our boiler, but I didn't want to miss the light. I take photos of it every day, as if its going to disappear.   

Which it might. It is Scotland, after all.
