    Getting close to the days getting longer again.

    > The actual moment of the solstice in 2023 will occur at 3:27am GMT in the UK (22 Dec), but most people concentrate on the whole solstice day, which has been recognised by holidays and festivals in many cultures around the world.

    > The shortest day lasts 7 hours 49 minutes and 42 seconds in London. This means that the length of the day during the winter solstice is 8 hours, 49 minutes shorter than the summer solstice.
