Morning denizens
Frost on the roofs of the outhouses. It's already thawing, without any actual direct sunshine, so it's not a heavy frost; but frost it is

Woke up over an hour ago and couldn't get back to sleep. This was particularly annoying as I don't really need to wake up for another hour yet

Anyway, today I travel southwards; for today is my parents' sixtieth wedding anniversary
They got a telegram from the Queen yesterday
We're all going out for Sunday dinner in a country pub that does very fine roast dinners. They had their big party back in the summer, so today's just immediate family

Well I woke up and the clock said 5. Not so bad, I thought, it's really 6 o'clock in yesterday's time. But no, the clock had not changed itself, so it was really 4 o'clock today's time.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostWoke up over an hour ago and couldn't get back to sleep.

Why do we say "o'clock"?

Short for "of the clock". See, for example, Henry IV Part 2, Act 1, Scene 2:Originally posted by mudskipper View Post
Falstaff My Lord, I was born about three of the clock in the afternoon, with a white head and something of a round belly.Comment
