British Summer Time ends.......

................ at 2.00am, Sunday 30th October!

Remember to put your clocks back 1 hour, thus giving us an extra hour of sleep that day!

That will be us in winter mode until 25th March 2012, officially the start of British Summer Time once more!

Re: British Summer Time ends.......

Thank you for the reminder Mags. It will really begin to feel like Winter next week. I'm not looking forward to it being dark from about 5.00pm but I don't mind the extra hour in bed on Sunday morning.

That really is the start of the winter months now Mags, mind you it takes me until December to get the clocks right again.

Re: British Summer Time ends.......

If this is the last time we turn the clocks back, for three years. Then we will be in a mess with a lot of jobs. To dark in the mornings, to light at night.
Why do they have to mess with Britain time, just to please some politician, and Europe.
