Apparently they've adopted DST throughout the year here. But go back to GMT for Ramadan.

It turns out morning light beats evening rays for health benefits

Wonder what it would take for it to just remain the way it is now.

DST will get scrapped, the EU was ready to do it but got distracted with Brexit and Covid, now the US is ready to do it, they just need to get aligned and do it. Probably distracted with Ukraine now, and then it'll be Taiwan after that, so who knows when they'll get round to it, but the intent is there. Assuming the UK chooses to align with US and EU, because it'd be crazy not to.
Don't get me wrong, I hate gardening, I only get so much time to do my elderly parents garden as they aren't close.I'm sorry for your lossIt really does ruin life doesn't it.

Just to make feek really happy I saw something earlier about a suggestion we should move to GMT+1 for winter, and GMT+2 for summer.

Feeling really tired today, could go to bed now it's only 2pm. Only 1 hour change but it has much more than 1 hour effect.

Why not just move to the poles where it's permanent night?
