   Under the old Julian Calendar, St Lucy's Day was the shortest of the year, but the Winter Solstice is now eight days later.
   It passed at 09:20 GMT, this morning.

   'Tis the year's midnight, and it is the day's,
   Lucy's, who scarce seven hours herself unmasks;
   The sun is spent, and now his flasks
   Send forth light squibs, no constant rays;
   The world's whole sap is sunk.

   [A Nocturnal upon St. Lucy's Day - John Donne]
