| Just a quick reminder that the clocks go back one hour this weekend.
Sunday 28th October at 02.00 in the morning, the clocks go back an hour to 01.00 am.
If you're anything like me, you'll change them all Saturday evening before going to bed! |

| I did remember but as an ex shift worker I always hated this one when we worked nights. Going in for refreshments at 0200hours having an hours downtime and then coming out again at 0200hurs. It really did my head in.  |

| Being related to this topic I wondered what members thoughts would be on the following information [size=150:2ydisiuc]Could the UK work with two different time zones?[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Golly gosh who would have thought an hour's time difference would make such a difference as below:  It would also purportedly save £200m a year for the NHS because of fewer accidents, boost British tourism revenue by £3.5bn and reduce carbon dioxide emissions through people leaving lights and heating off, it is claimed. Guess on this fact alone I would say go for it. |

| When local standard time is about to reach Sunday, March 31, 2013 at 1:00:00 AM clocks are turned forward 1 hour to Sunday, March 31, 2013 at 2:00:00 AM local daylight time instead Sunrise and sunset will both be about 1 hour later on Mar 31, 2013 than the day before. |

| First time in many a year when I really don't mind! As from tomorrow I will not be getting up at 3.30 am any more!  Unless I can't sleep!!!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Thanks for the reminder. Now, how do I convince Mr Eq to stay in bed longer, difficult one. |
