When I get time...

Time hunt is the bane of our modern life. I've just woken up sprawled across the bed with an untouched cold cuppa on the bedside shelf. Last I remember is thinking I'll watch the news at ten last night. I was working on the computer until 04:00 yesterday morning so I guess it's my own fault.
Of course visiting very poorly friends during the day didn't help along with every spare minute working in the garden.
Perhaps my body is saying slow down a bit.
Now where did I put my time machine controller?
