All of that works for me, but more importantly...I am on a night shift tonight and it means I get to work ONE HOUR LESS!

For those who like to plan ahead (or sad people, like me) I got this list of BST and GMT times from the DTI website:

                 In 2007: the Sundays of 25 March and 28 October
                 In 2008: the Sundays of 30 March and 26 October
                 In 2009: the Sundays of 29 March and 25 October
                 In 2010: the Sundays of 28 March and 31 October
                 In 2011: the Sundays of 27 March and 30 October

Now, which of these dates should I choose to get a life?...

;D

When the O/S is installed you get the choice to access the international clock (GMT) and + or - for you area. Most are set to access it. So Standard time and Summer time (Daylight Saving Time) occur automatically. I have two radio controlled clocks which take the time signal from Frankfurt.

Thankfully mum's central heating timer also did it all by itself.  Was dreading trying to talk through it down the phone to a 70 year old with a fear of technology, no patience & no powers of description.
is it in the sale?

I'm beginning to recover from the change. The first day in school after the clocks go forward is always a nightmare since I'm invariably half asleep all day.
