I think someone ought to tell the weather forecasters that we get an
extra hour in the morning. Both Susan Powell this morning and Thomasz
Shaffernaker yesterday lunchtime made the mistake of saying the mornings
would be darker, though Thomasz did correct himself. Susan didn't and
said it every half an hour!

The Institute of Advanced Motoring put out a Memo pointing the dangers of
the clock change.

Sunday.

That's why I posted it - we had just that conversation in the Nursery
yesterday afternoon. At first, several people were insisting that I
must be wrong because it was the last Saturday etc. And then when I
said it was actually at some horrible hour on the last *Sunday*, they
fell in!

I too almost got caught. My daughter, who's an ambulance person told
me she has to work an extra hour, 12 instead of 13, to cover the extra
hour. However, the radio this morning informed me twice.

That's one hour less but I understood what you meant.

and next spring she will work one hour less )

OOps, yes, I meant 13 insteaad of 12! Chances are she may not be on
night shift when the times change again in Spring.

I did that once! After the initial embarrassment with the gate-man
explaining it was a Bank holiday Monday I didn't know whether to feel
happy at the prospect of the day off or annoyed that I'd gotten up early
to go to work!
