There are no clocks in this room. None that tell the right time. The clock on the desk shows 6.50 (stopped). My iPod shows 08:24 as does my PC. Both clearly wrong (but timestamping this post). Two more stopped clocks show 3.14 and 6.00 respectively. A stopped pocket watch shows 6.46. My watch (which shows the right time) is in the other room and I don't want to wake Mrs Elbeno by getting it. I haven't heard any sirens in an hour. Perhaps time has stopped for everything else in the world but me.

It is dark. If I assume that it will get light again in due course then I should probably head to bed.
