    Just think last weekends:

    Always back the last weekend in October
    always forward in the last weekend in March.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    This reminds me of people who cant tell north, south, east, or west. I wonder how these people function at all. I mean its pretty simple to know which way the clock is going. Its 2012, heard of an iphone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,899 ✭✭✭✭BBDBB


    yes, we are moving into the 1990's


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat


    Think I'm going to go two hours back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,559 ✭✭✭refusetolose

    We must go forward, not backward. Upward, not forward. And always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom

    Yeah, but that would eliminate 50% of the threads on Boards. Can't be having that now.

    only if we hit 88mph


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


    Autumn forward, spring back.

    Fall back, spring forward . . .

    BST ends at 2am Sunday morning, and the clocks 'fall' back by one hour, this then means that you will
    have an extra hour in bed tomorrow morning, but it will also be darker much earlier tomorrow evening :)

    I heard the pubs dont abide by this rule either, they change their contracts accordingly to adjust for it apparently, so no extra drinking hours (unless yer lucky to be at a lock inn :))

    I remember being in a pub a few years ago and we got the extra hour. Not sure what the deal-eo is now tho. By right there should be an extra hour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭TheUsual

    And then .... Ground-hog Day.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,813 ✭✭✭themadchef


    Spare a thought for those working night shift tonight. A pain in the hole to be caught working it. You never used to get paid for the extra hour as it fell as part of your shift. (Well that's how it was back in the day).... oh endless night of nights :D

    Poor cnuts.

    Not if you have small children who will come in and jump on your head at what they perceive as the usual time. Then you end up getting an hour's less sleep than everyone else!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,828 ✭✭✭Reamer Fanny


    Yes tonight we go back in time


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,755 ✭✭✭A V A

    No you`l have to drop below warp speed first, and clear out the jefferies tube


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,168 ✭✭✭franktheplank


    Yes time is changing tonight.

    No longer will it 'pass' in a linear continuous manner.

    From here on in I shall interpret the activities of a small nest of ants in my back lawn. Based on these readings and my interpretations of them, I shall chose a moment on the continuum and the manner from which time will disperse from this point.

    Any questions, you at the back on the pogo?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    dont forget to put your clock forward one day in just over an hour people
