I have been finding it hard getting used to these much shorter days and the soft light that can barely be bothered to seep into my north facing kitchen during gloomy overcast days.

Worryingly, I don’t remember having this problem last Autumn. Maybe I wasn’t so fussy then or the days were brighter and drier. Either way, I am going to have to do lots of testing this week as this egg is looking flat as a pancake.
