The night rate

Here, the winter is long, six or seven months of long winter. In winter, the night falls at seven, at six or at five and, of course, the night rate doesn’t start until ten. Four hours of walking in the dark are quite a lot of hours and Mother Nature is wise; the body gets used, of course. At first I didn’t notice the advantages, sure walking around without bumping into something came in handy. Then, when I had to slip from an uncomfortable bed I began to see it clear, my sight had gotten used, of course. And then the bill arrived and I thought of it... it’s their fault, of course.
