Going Dark

Weirdly, this week is one of my favourites in the year.

It’s the time when all the exterior Christmas decorations on houses are extinguished again, and everything goes back to being properly dark.

It’s really surprising, just how much extra light pollution those decorations cause, and I just like having things back to normal.

Obviously it’s still pretty heavily grey during the day and so on, and I’ll be far happier as the days get longer again, but it’s nice to have nights back to being properly night-like again.  (Also, as it turns out, I wrote something very similar two years ago)
