I can never remember whether the clocks go forwards or backwards... My misses tells me 'remember spring forwards and fall backwards'.
I'm pretty good at the falling backwards bit but find the spring forwards somewhat difficult. So... I'm still confused. I think I'll spend an extra two hours in bed and sort it out after breakfast..
Hey Ho. :D :hmmm:

Updated some time devices, not all
Thankfully I now have fewer time devices than I had a few years ago

I have replaced most of my timepieces with radio controlled ones, so they do it by themselves and gives me one less thing to forget to do  :D

Cheers John.

Got up this morning what I thought was very early before nine went round set the mechanical clocks and then after I looked at one the auto set clocks I released I had set them back one hour :dunce:http://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/Smileys/NGF/dunce.gif

Nice one ! ;D
In my amateur radio days ( where real world wide time was important :) ) I had an analog clock with two hour hands, one was white and the other was black. For part of the year they were set 1hr apart and for the rest they were closed up together (push fit)
All I had to do was remember which was which  :hmmm: !!!!
