    Just about to do a sweep of all our clocks, and its amazing just how many start to appear once you go on a mission to change them all . . .

    Two watches, two car clocks, the microwave clock, the cooker clock, the old VCR clock, the new Sat box X 2, two Television Clocks, three wall clocks + two alarm clocks, the phone clock, the central heating timer, the immersion timer, the camcorder clock, moblile phone clocks, PC clock. laptop clock, HiFi radio clock, the DAB radio clock, the list is long in some houses!

    There might even be more, but I can't think of them right now.

    I'm amazed that you still have a VCR!

    Ah shíte, was all pleased with myself there for a moment, thinking I got more work done than expected (self employed, and catching up with stuff late into the night).

    Guys, don't make fun of the OP. As if your time machine is better than his.

    Are there time zones in the oceans? What time is it in the middle of the Atlantic?

    Turn the left side of your clock topways. Topways.

    Spring forward.....Fall back.

    If you didn't put your clock forward.........it's now 03:12, if you did it's 04:12.

    no, just the one. NP is where I live, NI is where NP is and NZ is the country

    What am I doing up at this ungodly hour!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,078 ✭✭✭✭LordSutch


    Therefore, (and this is the crux) though we are on the same time as BST we are not on BST, anymore than we are on CET which is also GMT+1, (with the countries usually on that time moving to CEST [Central European Summer Time]), nor as some people mistakenly call IST, Irish Summer Time, as IST is still our official standard time.

    Thats all very well (and very complicated) but local names aside, we are to all intents now running on GMT+ 1 hour (BST), as my radio controlled clock will testify to! All the Radio Controlled (Atomic Clocks) in the Republic run off the signal from Anthorne in Cumbria, and once the signal is received here it remains GMT+ 1 hour (BST). The Irish Government may have renamed it 'Irish summer Time' in 1968, but time is really set in Greenwich for these islands, + one hour in the summer time (thanks to Scotland I think)???

    There was some magic pixies that came along in the night and changed the settings for you.
