:sleep: :sleep: Once again its time this Saturday night in the UK to set your clepsydras forward 1 hour and loose the same amount of time in sleep :sleep: :sleep: :sleep:
Yes time dose indeed fly
Why lose sleep? It's Sunday - just stay in bed an hour longer.
Tempus Fugit was the motto on my old Grammar School badge.
Will make no difference to me I wake up when I wake up and get up about 30minutes later unless I turn over and get back to sleep.

Unfortunately our greyhound does not understand clocks, only meal times, walkies times, treat times and sleep times. So... we always have to pander to her body clock rather than that thingy on the wall with hands.
She gradually gets used to the difference in summer and winter time but only over the course of a few months.
:D :beers:
Whilst we're all tucked up in bed on Saturday night, spare a thought for the poor National Trust staff who will be working tirelessly throughout the night to move the stones "forward" an hour at Stonehenge. They have to do this twice a year, you know? Last year the rope snapped on the landrover.....

Ours was " Nil Sine Labore "
which we erks translated into the vernacular : "No Sign of Work", to the great annoyance of the Beak.

Ha! Youngsters these days, what do they know ?
Now in my day a good Flax with Honeysuckle and Old Mans Beard rope and some stout Englist Oak rollers, soon hav'em shifted.
tsktsk.
Nil sine labore is my town now district and school motto , however would expect to be out of bed tomorrow at 6.30 asmy grand daughter normally stays Friday and Saturday night but as I have been painting ,walls and ceiling not rolling stock she is staying at home tonight , so having finished I am hoping to sleep to at least 10:00am tomorrow , ,currently reading with a pint of speckled hen after completing painting ,gloss tomorrow
These new fangled radio controlled clocks are a great boon,
no longer do I have to get up early on a Sunday morning to move all the stones forwards or backwards and relight the candles,
I can remain in bed, oblivious, get up when it pleases me and find that the rest of the world is magically in-step with me :)
(Tommy) just like that (/Cooper)
