Greggs are doing their Festive Bakes nice and early this year.

It’s never the wrong time of year for a Festive Bake though.

My favourite time of the year but we never put our decorations before December 1st.

The only Christmas related activity we do before then is buying presents.

‘Christmas’ is about the Sun.

The shortest day or Winter Solstice is 21st December but that date is neither the latest Sunsirse nor the earliest Sunset of the year.

The earliest sunset is around 12th December (3.49pm) and the latest Sunrise is around 3rd January (8.24am) - that is the ‘Christmas’ season.

25th December is the date which the Sun first noticeably moves on the horizon at Sunrise, after the Winter Solstice. 25th December was called the dies solis invicti nati or ‘day of the birth of the unconquered sun’, in Roman times.

There’s no reason for the Christmas season to be any more than ~12th December to ~3rd January.
