The dawn's early light

I turn the Today Programme on when my alarm goes off at 7.15, but I usually then snooze for at least an hour.

This means I often have weird dreams interspersed with current news stories or Thought for the Day. For ages I thought these stories and photos of Britain at 6am were part of a dream, but I was awake at the right moment this morning to realise that they are real.

King's College Cambridge gets my vote. I remember being out on the Backs at dawn (though a few colleges down...) after staying up all night writing essays. I used to feel like the luckiest person in the world having that to look at.
