***CLOCKS BACK THIS WEEKEND***

[Antar Bolaeisk]

I hate when this happens, there's something like forty clocks in the house to be changed, takes bloody ages.

 

[Kazz]

Is this the ***OFFICIAL*** OcUK clocks are going back thread then?

 

[fidget]

Possibly for the last time. There's some kind of vote in Parliament later this year that could stop us changing our clocks.

LOL The papers dust off this story every October and March

 

[Nazca]

Hate it when they go back.

 

[iNPUt]

Ah finally just what i've been waiting for, pointless dark ours in the evening when I could have had one more hour of light. But no

Yeah I don't like it either.

 

[Davinnicus]

Whoo hoo, my sweet darkness returns. Bring on the snow

 

[Gaygle]

Is this thread a wind up?

Sorry

Don't be such a clock.

 

[bloodiedathame]

It should be official throughout the land to change clocks back 30mins on Sunday and then never have to change them again. Grrr.

 

[Dewotter]

Don't think so, but if you're on Windows Vista or 7, click the clock on the taskbar and it'll tell you.

Indeed that feature does exist and alas, I have no prompt. Makes it easer to talk to the family back home though.

It's about time (no pun intended) that we stopped having to change the time, just leave it as it is.

 

[6thElement]

just a heads up:

But then my clocks would be wrong for the upcoming week?

 

[Killerkebab]

It should be official throughout the land to change clocks back 30mins on Sunday and then never have to change them again. Grrr.

But then your clock would be wrong by 30 minutes all year round

It should be official to scrap DST completely

 

[snowdog]

Bah so it'll be even darker earlier in the day ? 7pm as if it's 1 am . I miss summer .

 

[Freefaller]

Oh bugger Means dark evenings. I hate this so much.

This reply is getting so annoying, can't wait till its on the banlist of annoying replies!

 

[Cosimo]

How could I forget. It’s like going into hibernation.

 

[arc@css]

Look at it this way, around approx 22nd of December onwards it starts getting lighter again, albeit slowly of course.

 

[dalin80]

The clock change doesn't make any real difference to me still eave for work in the dark and come back in the dark.

Lock us on GMT and be done with.
