Clocks going back

My dog still goes frantic at 5pm thinking it's time for 'din-dins'. I gave in yesterday even though his usual dinner time is 6pm. Tonight we stretched it to 5.30pm. Poor little chap is very confused

whitewave I've been awake since 4.45am once again (humbug) too early for me.

I suppose if Scotland does in the near future leave the UK, that would be a perfect timing for them to keep their time and the rest of the UK to revert to Double Summer time - I think that is what they used to call it.

Double summer time would make for some interesting journeys - an hour and ten minutes flying Edinburgh to Bristol would still have you arriving about an hour before you left. With standard summer time, at least the journey would be almost instantaneous - beam me down Scotty.

I do love Star Treck

Trek oops

Woke at 5, but with much effort managed to doze for again for a while. I feel completely limp - but that could be the after effects of DGS yesterday!

I feel sorry for those of you who struggle to adapt. It hasn't made any difference to me, I'm still waking up at 7am, which is when my alarm used to go off!

I'm still running on old time, and will be for weeks. Jetlag always used to affect me really badly. If I'm lucky I will have got used to this new time by xmas. DBH is annoying me by waking up at the new 5.30 because he simply can't hang on and go to bed an hour 'later'.

Unexpectedly, I seem to have adjusted, which isn't usual......family crises, sometimes late evening, have left me not caring what time it is, so I woke at 9 this morning ready to take my pills...........

I'm still waking up an hour early which is annoying but the dogs don't seem to mind!

Nothing ever affects DH's ability to sleep like a log.

Well said, Apricot.
Show some gumption, people, and don't give in to the tyranny of timepieces!
