Methinks that the extra hour of daylight will just enable us to see the rain for longer at the moment, but, on the positive side, I'm sure things will warm up a bit over the next few weeks.

Size matters - especially if you don't have a lot of space - and N gauge is the answer!

It's only an extra hour of daylight for those of us that don't surface before about 7 am.  Me I surface about 9.30am. Got a radio controlled watch and some of the clocks, so not much faffing about setting the change.

I look forward to the extra hour of daylight in the evening.
As for the warm and sultry weather.......not yet. Just been to B&Q . Got cold, blown away and very wet !
I'm sure I'll get used to cream first soon.

The problem I have is the smart arse ones that put themselves forward, leaving me trying to work out which ones are correct...

Pal of mine had an alarm clock that locked to MSF Rugby. We were in Portugal, which is on GMT. In the middle of the night, his alarm clock re locked to a German time signal and he ended up getting up an hour early.
The years have been good to me, it was the weekends that did the damage.

me too ! I can gain an hour between the bedroom and the kitchen, easy.

When I was well into amateur radio we worked on GMT (UTC) all the err time,
so I made a clock with two hour hands, the black one indicated GMT and the white one indicated (un-)civil time , , , or was it the other way round , , , so I eventually put a 'G' on one hand and a 'B' on the other !!

Which day of the week in July have the 'experts' decided will be 'SUMMER' for 2015...?

(Hat, Coat, - sorry can't go out the door - no umbrella, and it's raining; heavily)

Well it seems that some members were worried about health problems and who was suffering with them.
That's why the thread has the title it has. It got you looking and reading and maybe a couple of you did   remember to alter your clocks.
I have to admit though that I overslept dispite all my warnings :-[
