I have spent just about every day since we bought this house with its south-facing garden wondering: what will be the lowest point in the sky that the sun reaches on December 21/22nd?
Well today is the day but the snow is coming down and there definitely is no sun. However, I took the opportunity yesterday, at mid-day to take a 'sighting'. Here it is. For all practical purposes this photo above gives the answer. And the good news is that it does NOT go below the line of the two cotoneaster trees which we trimmed a month ago. (nor, indeed, the roof-top of the house at the rear).
Weather has stopped play. We are in for a real wintery time just now. Lots of fun and games for kids in the snow and ourselves trying to get about with the slush freezing at night.
