When the Clocks Went Back

Torn from my slumber in the early hours by a Blackbird outside in a tree, as it performed for us a solo dawn chorus as loud as can possibly be. Now fully awake, no way could I sleep all because of that darned noisy pest, so I stumbled about with one leg in my jeans as I quietly tried to get dressed. But I woke the missus, she looked at the clock saying “ it's only three forty-six!” which meant that last night when I checked all the clocks my watch I'd forgotten to fix. Next year when the Government say 'put your clocks back' can somebody please have a word, and ask them when they start reminding us all- can they also go tell all the birds.
