Time Change

Post by Lon »

It's Sunday morning 8:15 AM here in New Zealand and I notice that the time changed last night, going off Day Light Savings Time. There was no mention of it on last nights news and nothing in the paper. Glad it's Sunday and not a Monday. Too bad they can't keep Daylight Savings all year. It would sure save on energy.

I always like gaining an hour but not losing one. I need the sleep. Thanks for the warning...think I'll have a nap.

How do you all remember which way the clocks go?

I remember now by "They spring forward and fall back", but my flopmate growing up in Spain had never heard that saying.
