The Light Fantastic

The title the ancient Egyptians used for what we now call the Book of the Dead was The Book of Going Forth By Day. Note that in the UK until a few years ago the pubs opened at 11 a.m.

If you try really hard (one of my correspondents did) you can see this as a very elaborate joke via the chain: Around Elevenish —> Late in the morning —> Late —> Dead —> Book of the Dead. But I doubt if even Terry is that twisted.
