Rumour has it there's a solstice happening

[highlyeccentric]

Happy winter solstice to those of you who are a) in the northern hemisphere and b) inclined to observe solstices.

To those in the southern hemisphere: may you survive bushfire season safe and sound.
(For some reason, the solstice to me is associated with If You Didn't Know It Already, Bushfire Season Is Here. Yes, I'm paranoid.)
