I will be happy to use the electric lights at a later time, it's costing me a fortune, must be over a pound by now.

Seriously though it makes such a difference with the lighting and clothing I use whilst on the pushbike.

I couldn't agree more.The beginning of the end of the dark nights.Just wish they would do away with the outdated ritual of playing about with the clocks.

They could get rid of those dark mornings and nights by shortening the working day. ( Same money of course. ) Down to, maybe, 4 hours a day.

We could have daylight both morning and night then.---

I enjoyed the summer we have just had. Would certainly like another one like it.
