Bye bye Daylight Saving
We went off Daylight Saving Time here this morning. It got me thinking how I always get a bit confused about which way the clock moves. When I was at University I remember being annoyed that an hour was taken away from you when you were busy studying for exams - and then only given back well after they were over.
Another way I can remember is the saying "spring forward and fall back" - not totally apt here in a country where we say "autumn" rather than "fall" - and then when you go forward on a clock it has always seemed odd to me that you add an hour on.
Oh well, I'll figure it all out one day.
We did the Spring forward thing a couple of weeks ago. I wish we'd stay here and not fall back.
ReplyDeleteActually I like the first few weeks after daylight saving goes - nice and light in the mornings. But then the days get shorter again. At least we don't have very cold winters.
