Setting clocks back that one hour I only see daylight through the windows of the lunch room. night all day. Oslo Skyline lets me recall one of my earliest memories; from a baby seat in the back of my uncle's Citroën, hypnotized by the yellow lights of a Shell station we were parked outside. something so comforting about the brightness of a whole, little day within the darkness of way- beyond-bedtime. warmth within winter. adults in conversation. I hope the bus driver keeps the overhead halogens off in here. there's nothing unfriendly about this lack of daylight.
