davieG Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 Timely reminder: British Summer Time ends at 2am on Sunday
ScouseFox Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 thought id get a great extra hour in bed but then found out other countries clocks dont change so i have to just go in an hour earlier cos im on foreign time at the mo. sake.

Vacamion Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 I, for one, miss the days when a page 3 stunna would pose topless holding a large clock set at 2 o'clock with a glint in her eye...
Webbo Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 I, for one, miss the days when a page 3 stunna would pose topless holding a large clock set at 2 o'clock with a glint in her eye... Just begging to be edited. You did that on purpose, didn't you?
Great Boos Up Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 Can we just please move the clocks half an hour back and leave them be forever. We don't get an extra hour if you have kids or pets or a body clock. Moving the clocks is a second world war relic to keep factories open during working hours so no illumination was visible to Nazi bombers. It's got nothing to do with Scottish farmers or School Children. We tried to keep British Summer Time in the 70's and Scots complained. ( The nation of which 45% hate the English ~ official). Twice a year ! Leave time alone !

Twice a year ! Leave time alone ! As someone who lives amongst them, doing missionary work, and who voted with the 56% to remain in the Union, and who regularly refers to yessers as zombies, cybernats and cultists, even I don't agree that all the 44% hate the English. I would say that it stays awfully dark up here in the mornings in Winter, I can see why the good people of Aberdeenshire wouldn't want it to get light only at about 10:30 in the depths of December. I like the current system.
Great Boos Up Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 Good work, but we can still all cope together with different time zones. It's only an hour.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 ****ing hate when clocks go back. Is bad enough now but having it go dark about half four is awful. Literally less than ten maybe nine hours of daylight. Favourite time of year is very early sumer when it is light before 0500ish and stays like it until late. Just depressing when dark here
Vacamion Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 Good work, but we can still all cope together with different time zones. It's only an hour. Possibly, but weighing the problems a different time zone would create against the problems a different time zone would solve leads me to conclude that it is better (for the UK as a whole) to stick with the arrangement as it currently is.
Wymsey Posted 23 October 2015 Posted 23 October 2015 Find it harder getting out of bed when it's still quite dark.
Great Boos Up Posted 24 October 2015 Posted 24 October 2015 Do you still have problems sleeping Wymesy?
ozleicester Posted 24 October 2015 Posted 24 October 2015 Bugger, back to 11pm kick off and not getting to bed until 1.30am
