Silent Night Solstice Night, here sung by classykassy is a version of the Christmas carol adapted for the solstice. Instead of a focus on the birth of Jesus the lyrics ask us to think about nature, the ‘fallow’ time of winter and the hope for rebirth.

I hope those thoughts might serve us well, in UK as we face cancelled holiday plans, strict lockdown, the possibility of a no-deal Brexit, food shortages, flood warnings, and general misery. Try to remember that some day there will be light again!

Happy Birthday to my daughter!
