Woo-hoo, the clocks go back to GMT next weekend!

[Colonel_Klinck]

Used to love it when I was young and raving/clubbing every weekend and you got an extra hour before the lights came on at 8am.

Now I'm a bit meh and it just means we're in for that horrible dank 5 months of British autumn/winter. Roll on spring.

Hello darkness my old friend

I've come to talk with you again. Because a vision softly creeping, left its seeds while I was sleeping.

maybe we should just do away with clocks and rely on instinct, maybe rely on various birdsongs to determine what 'time' it is

Clocks work fine as long as they in sync with a master clock.

Humans did that for millennia then astronomy was studied in ancient worlds and time based on solar and planetary motion was discovered and is pretty well immutable.

They are not even in the right time zone.

OcUK Dadsnet thread

I thought it would be nice to have a thread where expecting dads, new parents or really bloody old parents alike could ask questions and share experiences of parenting or ways to save cash etc, as well as just moan about being exhausted and skint. Are you trying to work out whether you...

Can you please let all the children know?

My first thought as a father of two was ‘not a ****ing chance in hell’

 

[D.P.]

Wouldn't it be great if we had cheap, portable sources of light.

Or just stop messing with the time of day in summer

Oh gawd, it's the time of the undead, bloodsuckers and ghouls.

The budget isn't until next month.

Thank god it can be completely dark before I even think about finishing work now. I was just thinking today how awful it is to still have some light at 6pm.

Damn it, why is it last year and this year, when they go back, i am taking a flight on that day


this happened last year and i was worried that i would mess up my flight because of the time change, this year im doing the same thing, i need to take a flight next sunday

 

[dymetrie]

Definitely looking forward to my 9am (PDT) meeting next week being at 4pm GMT, rather than 5pm BST!

At least until they catch up and switch to PST

 

[Zatoichi.uK]

Boo. I much prefer the long light evenings. Still, Halloween is fun and Christmas is looming.

 

[DJMK4]

I do like GMT, mainly because i get a decent nights sleep

 

[Crizzy]

At last, my car clock will be the right time again

 

[UTmaniac]

It will help my worsening sleep pattern by getting me up an hour earlier in the short term at least, but I hate it going dark before dinner, mainly because I love going for outdoor rides after dinner during the warmer/lighter summer BST months.

Good

You vampires suck!
