    Did anyone forget to put their clocks forward an hour yesterday?

    I got really spun out even though I didn't forget... I was all disorientated.

    It felt really good that it didn't get dark until 7.30pm though, come on late nights in twilight!:D

    It'll take about a week before my body clock sorts itself out, pain in the proverbial. :)

    It takes a while for everyone to set their clocks, witch is confusing....

    Only because I had loads of work to do on Sunday and had to get up early:confused:

    I have before now turned up an hour *early* for work on a Monday after the clocks went back and I didn't realise through the whole of Sunday:rolleyes:

    we call ours standard time and daylight savings time. i can't ever keep track of which is which. why can't we call it summer time & autumn time? oddly, it really does come up quite a bit. i know "spring forward and fall back."

    I've never heard that before, nice one. It's a good way of remembering it although fall doesn't translate easily to English, 'autumn back?' Not quite the same. I could pretend and say it in an American accent.
