Colm O'Regan: Not even Nphet can take the brighter evenings from us

There's a grand old stretch in the evening on the way and no one can take it away from us.

Spring: I realise now that was taking it for granted. Sure, didn’t the year always get round to it eventually? In primary school we were told it started in February, but part of growing up means understanding that February is, in its hole, the start of spring.

But maybe this year, it has to be. Even more so than last year. If you remember, the first lockdown started on March 13 and the sun came out for three months. The good weather was like an unsustainable PUP fund to get us over a hump. Well, the Weather Exchequer ran out of funds long ago.
