Mornings Getting Darker And Colder

avatar

Today was my first day in my winter uniform (jeans+t-shirt+jacket). It was about 6 C in the morning and it's only about 9 C right now. It's also clearly darker than before autumn equinox. At winter solstice, the day will only be about 5 hours 30 minutes long.

Micro cars are quite popular. They're driven by youths between 16 and 18 years of age. The age at which you can get a driving licence for a real car is 18. Those things are quite expensive and they don't last very long. I would expect a model like that to cost about €15k to €18 k when new. Their value drops very quickly and they only last less than 100,000 km. Pretty much the only reason to buy a micro car would be if you have kid in secondary education not eligible for a driving licence and you live in the middle of nowhere and can't drive your kid to school and hobbies. A real car is safer and much more affordable.

Or I could be mistaken and that one is a really bad ass mobility scooter...

All this road construction work has to do with the new bypass road.

You must be misunderstanding me. The day is not that short now. It is longer now. It is five and a half hours long only on December 21. Now the day is much longer. It is autumn now, not winter.
