I wake up, pitch black but internal clock tells me it's six-thirty and the cat is scratching at the outside door to get out.
Neighbour's cowshed is in action, milking. Blue light over the trees says it'll be daylight in twenty minutes. Clock on the wall that has been an hour slow since last winter says it's six thirty after the usual mental arithmatic.
I turned the computer on and after a few minutes my brain registers that the little clock on the corner is saying something starting with five.
It's still insistent.
You know what that means? It'll be dark by six tonight if it keeps up this behaviour. And no doubt the rest of the world believes it...
