  Fuse 7 also powers Horn relay, Radiator Fan relay, Handbrake warning light ( Red wire) which follows on from the clock.  60 milliamps would not flatten a battery for some days. A glove box light 0.25 amp takes a couple of days. I would get your battery checked and check the alternator is actually putting a full charge into it when running. Connect your volt meter across the battery, run the engine and check voltage rises with the headlights on when revs are raised. You need it to maintain 12v+ at minimum.

I changed the battery this afternoon. The engine jumped into life unlike I've seen before. It shows 14+ volts when above idle. I'll monitor it over the coming weeks.
