The clocks go back this weekend..

[JohnH]

Watch says "9:27", computer says "8:27", brain says "Tired...".

This is madness.

so cut the summer school holidays down to 2 weeks

But how will the airlines and holiday companies fleece all us parents??
Aaaah - they'll charge even more for all the holidays in those two weeks - bummer!

I had a team of peeps due into work at 06:00 this morning - which was 07:00. One of them sent me a text at 04:50 saying he was "running late and would be in the office in another 10mins" - :roll:
I replied with a "No rush " - and he sat and waited until I got there at 06:00 - bless

I wonder how many turning up for the Swinley ride at 10:00 will be late or early :?:

Humans should be learning to adapt to what the planet does not it adapt to us this moving clocks backwards and forwards every year is ridiculous, I wonder what we would do if we did not have a device we use as a time reference, perhaps we would do what the ancients did, get up when it's light and go to sleep when it's dark. Anyway there is enough wildlife around that tells us it's time to get up, anyone ever notice the silence one minute early in the morning and all of a sudden the birds starting to choke and cough, the racket they make.

In Shetland in Mid Winter if you got up when it got light and went back to bed when it got dark you'd only be awake for 4 hours in every 24 :shock:

Mind you you'd never go to bed in mid summer at all and then you'd go mad, mad I tell you, mad HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

[marin man]

To late for you I reckon
