Alarmed

Drove as far south as was feasible and then stopped over in a rather seedy Hilton by the M40 (still having some ‘loyalty’ points to use up). Massive TV screen in room, but they still have these strange radio/alarm type things - I’ve never managed to get one successfully to set an alarm or to play a radio station I wanted. It’s not even showing the right time (this was taken at about 18:45). And what’s AU - August? Australia?
