You must have blinked at the exact moment that it passed.

An extra hour in bed?

And we'll be back to the correct local noon. No more of this DST bks. I'm in favour of working according to daylight hours rather than an arbitrary time on a clock face.

That would be an extra hour in your bedroom gaming on your 50" TV? Oh come on, you knew that was coming

What bright side? You go to work - it's dark. You come home - it's dark. The only time you see the sun is the weekend. It's crap IMHO.

There is no bright side. It's all dark.

Already got that, at least I get to see my car in daylight in the mornings from now on, woohooo!

Still, when I worked in London it was virtually dark when I walked into the (basement) office and dark when I walked out. I didn't see light for 5 days at a time. I thought I was some sort of bat after a few weeks

Strange that. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that there are fewer daylight hours? scratchchin

I hate this time of year, but for once I've booked a winters holiday and the first week in November I'll be jetting off to Italy, yes it may get dark early there too, but at least I won't be here, working and going home in the dark. I've rarely looked so forward to a holiday biggrin

Don't like the equator. It's full of things that want to sting you.

Yeah that's my life anyway, the clocks changing has no effect.
