The darkening.

I hate finishing work just after four and it already being almost dark. It’s not natural and aii dount laike it. The Australian in me gets upset at any day where it gets dark before six pm, and even that’s pushing it. You totally have to be able to get home and lounge around for at least an hour before it gets dark. Those are the rules.

I can remember one of my friends solemnly swearing that all the best punk and metal bands come from Scandinavia because it’s dark half the year and this gives them the incentive to get all angsty, write some great music and then kill themselves with drugs before they make it to their mid twenties. After living in a country where it gets dark at four and they stubbornly refuse to entertain the idea of daylight saving, I’m beginning to come around to his way of thinking.
