Happy Winter Solstice to all in the northern hemisphere. The turn of the year's tide, a pivot-point, a day of hope—when the dark stops rising & after which the Sun begins its slow climb back. A day I mark in my mind much more than Christmas or New Year. Fiat lux! šŸ“· by

Just heard from BBC Radio 4 Today that Clare Reihill from T. S. Eliot Foundation was moved by my piece this morning and is sending me a copy of the colour edition of the book. So thoughtful, thank you. She says she knows it can’t replace my old edition,but my goodness it certainly helps.
