Clocks forward..

Post by **DelP** » 24 Mar 2007, 21:45

Hi Folks,

Just a reminder to UK citizens that clocks go forward tonight..we loose an hours sleep.. :roll:

Don't you just hate it when you fire up your computer the next day and it says:

'I knew that...you're stupid...I've done it for you.....'

I moved my clock forward last night

Was fed up of it falling off the back of my bedside table

Not just UK citizens Del, I think it pretty standard across the EU and many other countries too.

In the US we set the clocks ahead 3 weeks ago
what a pain it was to fake out the Atomic alarm clock....
now . ...to set it back it.

Just to give this a vaguely Fsim theme.. don't be worried when you start your favourite flying sim up today and you see it rebuilding the scenery database.. especially when you know you've not loaded anything new. It does this as a consequence of the clock move

Well there is one good thing to come with the clocks changing, the time on my car's clock is right again for a few months!

Was there a change in plan in the US?

Seems like M$oft had to issue patches to correct the daylight saving time change.

At work it seems to have really upset Outlook calendar for organising meetings

Hi Ian

As far as I know there was a change of date......someone in the States I was talking to mentioned that when they changed the clocks.
