Full hour back it'll be dark at 5pm /cheer.

I do like dark evenings if only it wasn't so hot.

Dark and cold? You sound cheerful lol

I hope you all spare a thought for us poor night shift workers tonight, 13 hour shift....lovely.

Then theres the issue of do you rely on your clock putting itself back an hour or do you do it yourself? If you rely on the clock it'll invariably fail to do it or if you do set it yourself it certainly will put itself back an hour as well. So you either turn up for work an hour early or arrive an hour late.

My dog will be confused, her internal body clock will be out for a week or so

She and me both my bodyclock is totally fubar for the best part of a week

We have set the clock back at the start of the shift and started break times an hour early so no one misses out.

If we have to work an extra hour, 30mins of it will be taken as a break

Nobody ‘invented’ time. It’s a constant which we choose to measure differently come certain times of the year.

I just love getting up for work in the dark and finishing work in the dark

Bring on spring/summer again yeeooo!

John Harrison invented time, clearly.

Have three wall clocks. Every time the clocks change, I knock off the picture pin from one of them. That trend continued.

 

[something daft already!!]

I've done the ancient tech at my partners place for her. Everything I have is automatic.

We had a power cut about 3 weeks and I left all the clocks out knowing this was coming. I have one radio controlled clock that will do itself which is cool, but **** me. What a pain in the ****. Just to make it ****ing darker. And them have to do it all again, and again, and again.

One more free drinking hour.

Dogs don’t understand time anyway. Only when it’s walk time. They get that

Why do i have to work today.
Feels like a total waste of the blessed hour extra in bed.
The joy of waking up early and smugly thinking oh i have an hour more...wasted..

 

[chaparral]

Like everytime the clocks change i wake up in the morning and go looking at multi different clocks thinking did they auto change or not and trying to workout what time it really is

 

[cheesefest]

I’m not at work today. Usually on clock change Sundays, get one idiot who shouts “do you realise it’s 10:25” when clocks go back. When clocks go forward “why are you closed its 3:25”
