Nah - the days get longer from the 21st. Happy days surely?
Do they? Where's the scientific evidence to back this statement up? In other words, due to the earth's wobble the time of sunset will be getting later while the time of sunrise is also getting later, although with a longer interval of daylight in between.

Yes, they do. Although curiously the mornings continue to get darker for another couple of weeks.

Thanks for the explanation. I thought the days only start getting longer just before Spring not as early as 21st December...In other words, due to the earth's wobble the time of sunset will be getting later while the time of sunrise is also getting later, although with a longer interval of daylight in between.
If both sunrise and sunset gets later how does the daylight interval get longer?
