1426408 2016-09-24 00:13:00 Daylight Saving recommences on Sunday 25 September 2016 (clocks go forward one hour, when 2.00am becomes 3.00am)

1426409 2016-09-24 00:19:00 no kidding - just as well you posted or we would never have known! :devil bevy121 (117)
1426410 2016-09-24 00:44:00 Yes, it is a little hard to miss.

Looking forward to those long warm evenings. Daylight Saving is a great idea even if it is still dark when you get up.

1426411 2016-09-24 01:07:00 Yes me too, love the longer days provided. Cicero (40)
1426412 2016-09-24 01:31:00 Yes it will mean that it will no longer be dark when I come home. Bobh (5192)
1426413 2016-09-24 01:38:00 I would like to see it scrapped altogether.
If you want more time in the evening, then knock off earlier.

Ken :)

Don't forget that the curtains fade more as well!:(

What really surprises me is that there is still people out there who think that way.:eek:

1426416 2016-09-24 02:33:00 Yeah, same people who think the sea level is rising in some areas but not in others. Driftwood (5551)
1426417 2016-09-24 03:35:00 I've got the solar panels washed, nature is rinsing them right now, so in theory we're ready to save daylight at a furious pace. However, there is sweet #### all daylight to save. Weather machine says 30 watts per sq m currently, a bit down on the theoretical 885 WM^2 we are entitled to for the location and the season. Perhaps tomorrow we'll be able to get a proper savings routine started? R2x1 (4628)
