Re: Daylight Saving Time


British Summer Time starts on 25th March here ..........fortunately I only have the clocks to change (including the cooker clock) here. Everything else miracuously changes itself, thank goodness!

That's an interesting article Eileen, there's more involved to it than we tend to realise.....

Re: Daylight Saving Time


Our clocks should be changed already too - it's spring, for goodness sake.
BUT - the shorter the period of 'winter time' the greater will be the questioning as to whether it's worthwhile at all.
I don't think so

So, for two weeks I'll only be four hours behind you, rather than five.... All I have to change is clocks, radio, TV, answering machine and watch, although think I'll have to change the computer as I think it's programmed for the old DST, and then re-change. Wish we'd just stay on DST all year...
