Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

British Summer Time ends tonight as we put clocks back 1 hour and we get that blissful one hour extra in bed

The downfall is we will now have to put up with dark evenings until March next year.

Thank goodness for another hour in bed!

Re: Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

Bloomin eck.....I think I must have slept through the summer.

Re: Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

Mags, l wonder how many of us take advantage of that extra hour, when our body clocks are still tuned into the old time? Our animals, still want feeding at their usual time, so bang goes that blissful extra hour!!

I find these days that the time between October and March seems to fly by!
I think a lot depends on how bad the weather is over the Winter. If it is really bad, the time seems to drag as we are stuck in and sometimes end up getting ‘cabin fever’!

Re: Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

Then again, there are those (night shift workers, Nurses, etc. in Business, or elsewhere) who have to do an extra hour!

We should leap out of bed, and salute them, at 2 am!

After you, Ted.

I don't mind the dark nights
And cosy nights-in are great...

But I DESPISE the dark mornings

Re: Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

I was going to say... My brother told me that British Summer Time didn't happen this year.

Re: Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

I don't mind the dark mornings; there's something comforting to me about getting up and eating breakfast before the sun rises.

At the other end of the spectrum I hate those nights in Summer when I can't sleep and it's getting light at 3 to 4am.

Re: Reminder - British Summer Time ends.

Means I get to eat breakfast an hour earlier - Hmmmm could have a nice fry-up breakfast too!!!
