Heard the birds singing at 6.36am today. And they woke my daughter up! I guess I'd better get the blackout curtains out of the airing cupboard and hang them again.

Hurrah, evenings are already light until 4.30 rather than 4. Bring on spring!!

Saw a flock of birds flying NORTH today, that must be a good sign!

For anyone else as daylight-obsessed as me you can track the sunrise and sunset times with this site:

The world clock bit is very handy too if you call international like I do  :)

Dan, I don't have one either and there are a few more of us, but it doesn't matter, we still have problems, successes or whatever that we can share and I learn so much ready for when OH finally gives in and lets me have one.  I am going to dig up some more lawn in protest at the weekend!
