CHM replies: alas I am undone! I was wondering how long it would take my readers to spot my apparently astonishing ability to blog at absurdly early hours, first thing in the morning. Some answers to Joanne's questions:
I am not an insomniac. In fact I'm still seriously good at snoozing.
I have a desktop not a laptop, and no 3G card, so I cannot prop myself on the pillows and tap away.
There are no pyjamas.
I did stay up all night with some friends the other week for the first time since 1987, after a dinner party I was giving got a little out of hand, and it nearly finished me off. Also at that point the narrative would have been none too coherent: trust me.
The truth is that I am usually either asleep or in the bath at the moment of posting.
How is this miracle achieved? I'm going to have to fess up, I fear: the clever people at Google who developed the Blogger software (courtesy of which the blog appears) have cunningly included amongst the posting options the facility for inputting a publication date and time in the future. So I quite often put together a set of posts for the blog and then set their release dates for the forthcoming week or fortnight and usually for an early hour ... which is why I'm more than likely getting my beauty sleep as this slips out to an unsuspecting world at 22 minutes past 4. Morning, all.
