The clocks go forward tonight. At 1.00am, to be precise. So I will be staying up until then, which is a bit of a pain, but it has to be done I suppose.

I might live dangerously and put mine forward before the appointed hour .

I'm sure the world won't spin of its axis or anything if I do flaunt the laws of

time.

I may just go to bed and put the clocks forward when I get up.

How's that for being reactionary?

Hi Amanda. Hope things are ok with you.

Well, I would do it in the morning but I have an early start and probably won't have time and I dont want to go without my morning glass of cranberry and melon tea.

That's the ticket Sue.........in the past I have been know to do the clock thing an hour in the wrong direction , thus losing two hours !......lol

Things have been sadly rather bad of late but I think we are over the worst of our troubles , well I hope so anyway .

Off to Anglesey in a couple of weeks : ))

I've never started the morning with a glass of cranberry and melon tea - I just about manage half a cup of nescafe, if I'm lucky!

Sorry things haven't been too good, lately, Amanda. Not too bad, I hope?

My folk will be getting up early to watch the Grand Prix, so they'll really notice that lack of hour, I guess.

MIck I thought it was only us in NZ who had to put them back next weekend. I'm sick of losing sight of the dog (dog exercise area by the river) in the pitch black on our morning walks
