My car's clock is still on BST from last year - so I don't need to worry about that one! laugh.gif

I am sooooo tired. The last thing I need is to lose an hours sleep. sad.gif

Join the club. Tired, but not yet sleepy, if that makes sense. blink.gif

And tomorrow's going to be a very busy day too. unsure.gif

Well, on reflection it was not a good idea to volunteer to preach today at the 8.00 and 10.00 services. sad.gif And I was seriously dischuffed to find that the start of British Summer Time necessitated clearing ice off my car.

Unsurprisingly the attendance at the 8.00 service was rather smaller than usual. smile.gif

It's not just BST - the whole of Europe now changes at the same time, thoughwe still, of course remainan hour ahead of the UK.

I think it's great because I no longer have to come home in the dark after an evening''s teaching. But apparently it upsets the cows on account of their milking time. All I can say is hard luck cows!

That is such a cool word! biggrin.gif

I wonder how many people actually know how to set the clocks in their cars... unsure.gif

If you have a basic, P-reg car like mine, it's no problem at all - you simply twist a little knob to move the digits forward! And I suspect the really swish cars do it automatically these days. So it's just the ones in between which might cause a problem! biggrin.gif

Thanks for posting this Barry...if I hadn't seen it (at around 1am on Saturday night!!!) I would have been an hour late for my choir and would have missed mass completely!
