clocks go back this weekend

[slinky.kate]

dont forget?

[dotty.]

i'd better not i'm working at 9am sunday and have to let the staff in!

[moonraker558]

How could I, I am on nights and will have to work a 13 hr shift. Bugger.

[ummmm]

Well if you do forget, dotty, you'll be an hour early.

[RevArkwright]

Back where?. Mine is still working. lol.

[dotty.]

yes but we can't be in the store alone for H&S reasons and so i'd have to sit in the car park on me tod

[DTCwordfan]

Oh gawd, does that mean NoM or wbm are opening up the "Good Morning ABers" at 3.15 am new time?

[RevArkwright]

Frayed so (spelling) lol.

[RevArkwright]

Daft thing is, the sun comes up, the sun goes down.

You cannot extend the hours of daylight. It is just a number on the clock, ie, meaningless.

[EcclesCake]

An extra hour of zzzz time or an extra hour of being busy???

I'm going for zzzzzz.......

[RevArkwright]

There is no extra hour in reality !

[DTCwordfan]

Depends when you die, Rev..........

[ummmm]

I could do with that hour on Sunday morning no doubt.

[Jeza]

Totally agree. When we are back on GMT on Sunday morning leave it at that. No more BST.

[RevArkwright]

I have cast aside all mechanisms which purport to determine time.

Alarm clock, wristwatches etc. I awake with the morning sun and retire as and when necessary.

[DTCwordfan]

so you have given up your morning woody relief then, Rev?

A lot of men (and women) set their watches to that event.

[RevArkwright]

I hope you mean woodbine ciggies DT.

[DTCwordfan]

of course, Rev..................................ahem.

[starone]

I will vote for anyone, regardless of who they are if they will leave the blasted thing alone. If it wasn't for kate I would not have known - I make a point of not watching the news.

[DTCwordfan]

As the change of hour strikes the AB bell tower,
this first winter night, you see the ice in the fountain,
they almost make you think its Spring,
those holly berries that look like white
in their net of green and brown pre-Christmas branches.

Thanks DT, your poems always cheer me up. As someone or other said "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"
