Set clocks forward one hour Saturday night before going to bed. (Eastern US). Time acutally changes at 2 a.m. but it's not important enough for me to set the alarm :wah:

All i can find is april the 2nd - has it got anything to do with GBs energy policy act 2005 some thing about the time and date changing in the US beginning in 2007. Sorry thick blonde brit here..... ps and its a english calender ....(but then ive just looked at mine and it gives US holidays )

That was my first answer but i scrubbed it thinking it was a sort of trick question then i thought maybe this year it had been scrapped because of GBs energy policy for 2007 .Even getting the date i still thought it was a trick question - me thick

I never know until Saturday evening when it's time to change the clocks. Then I forget until the next day. hate all this pallaver and I just don't understand why it's done.

When I was a boy, I was told that it was for the farmers. But the farmers told me that they need to get out and milk the cows early in the morning and putting the clocks forward means that they have to do it in the dark just when they were gettting used to the morning light.

Then i was told that it was for schoolchildren. And that just begs the question...

In England, the actual moment of change is 01:00. GMT is the correct time, BST is one hour ahead. When the clocks go back to GMT, it's 1 o'clock for an hour.

And mine. Looks like it's been camouflaged. Can you manage it, Nomad? I'll let you pay me for the privilege.
