    Used to hate the clocks going forward when on a night out years ago.
    You know yourself, when going out with mates you'd have the usual time you'd all meet up in a bar. But then you'd lose the hour. So suddenly it would be last orders then closing time shortly.

    Ahh no big loss. Hate drinking in town now. Ha i'm getting old :pac:

    I got so confused for a second. Had my eye on the time and it was coming up to one. Spaced out for a little while and looked at my laptop again to see it was suddenly 2AM and I really thought I had been spacing out for longer than I had thought!

    Quit smoking that sh!t dude.

    Scumbags messing around with the clocks for the laugh. Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, and Salvador Dali would be rolling in thier graves.

    Famous people dropping like flies throughout 2016 or so it seemed. Most of them were a good age and there was nothing strange about it, really.

    I'm not a great sleeper lately, need to be up early anyway so..

    Clocks going forward are great for the night shift, you get to leave one hour earlier and be paid for the full time.
    PITA in the autumn though.

    I've been on Canada time for the weeks between their clocks moving and ours so today we finally synchronise...

    WHen I logged on, the computer went to another hour ahead, ie after 7 am, then corrected back to the new reality so that is fine.

    Time is an illusion anyways. Just the label we put on it for our mutual convenience.

    I like that way of looking at it.
