1. I've woken so early, but to the south there is such clear, bright light.
2. The way headphones replace the noise of roadworks and scaffolders with sounds that I can control.
3. I am supposed to be looking after our girls. They go into the garden and totally ignore me, apart from occasionally knocking on the window and running away. So I put on a radio programme about the technicalities of storytelling and ignore them right back.
