Lying on my left side to press down on my heart, hoping to slow it down and go back to sleep. It just beats louder. I hear the hoot of an owl. Then the long long whine of a moped. Someone heading for the early shift. Eventually, when just about to drop off, there's the distant bang of a collision on Kingsway. I creep to the window to see outside. Mist blurs white from the lights of the dual carriageway, where the traffic flow is slowing. 7.00am.
