poliphilo I was psyching myself up to get out of bed when Ailz returned from the bathroom and said, "Do you know what happened last night?"
"Oh my god," I thought, "Something world-historical has gone down. Please let it be good news...."
And she said, "The clocks went back...."
I had no idea.
This is the first time in my life that I've been caught unawares by this twice-yearly phenomenon. Usually I'll have gone round the evening before re-setting the clocks in advance.
It was rather nice. I got to doze an extra hour and indulge in those fantasies and speculations that are almost dreams but not quite.......
