clocks changing this sat

reminder for some of us on the board dont forget to put your clocks back on sat night


and note to self next year dont pull the night shift when they do

how come i never get the spring shift

 

My clocks wont be going back, because I have paid for them.

 

Thanks for that I more than likely would've forgotten with the chaos of the weekend!

 

i would have too if it had not been the fact that all the girls were sighing with relief and taking the mick because i had the night shift when we were in the office getting our rotas

Good! An extra hour to lay-in!

 

I'm so glad I work flexitime. My current job and previous two jobs all feature flexitime, so I've got used to the idea that I adjust my body clock to get up extra early as the days get shorter, so in summer I can have a sleep in, then do my work, then still have some daylight. Then in autumn and winter I get up increasingly early, do my work, and finish early so I still get some daylight.

Summer time, 9-5. Dark nights, 8-4. If I could get away with it I'd do 6 til 2 every day through the winter, but 10 til 4 are core hours, so can't finish earlier than 4 no matter what time I start.

 

I will still forget, but thank you for reminding us!

 

It's kind of sad that it will get dark so early in the day.........but then again there is something nice about shutting it all out and cuddling up in the warm with a nice cuppa or a beer or two and a seed catalouge......... and of course Corrie....:thumb:

 

have a good night all enjoy your lay ins

Roll on tomorrow night when i can go to bed ( also have a granddaughter staying over with grampa of course) so no chance of kip when i get home

 

We are the only European country on the same time zone as the UK and currently our sunrise is 7.54am and our sunset at 6.39pm so we will also notice the difference.

Temperature currently is 19c .. now there is the difference .. and we find that very cool and are now wearing jeans and sweaters.

 

By complete coincidence, 19c is the temperature in my hot water tank after Poppie left the hot tap running for 2 hours:DOH::( No bath tonight then.

Not looking forward to the dark evenings, although it does give a little more scope for "Black Ops":WINK1:

 

I hate it when the clocks go back. The sudden dark evenings are a load of treetreetreetree. I always feel better when we pass December 21st and we're on the long climb back upwards ...
