I woke up at 4.41am today and couldn’t get back to sleep.

I don’t mind waking up earlyish, but this is silly. Worse still when you know it’s not going to get light for another four hours. I need a plan to use the time constructively. Thank goodness the Today programme starts at 6am…

In the meantime, the soundtrack to unwanted pre-5 am wakefulness has to be Simon and Garfunkel…
