And what time is GMT anyway ? I'm not sure, but I think it's a difference to German time of two hours ?

Later in the day is more risky. If everything goes badly wrong they might have to pay overtime to the staff who would be trying to fix it.

My organic server crashed at the same time! I meant Midnight! Owatta Goo Fiam!

Why would you look in the washing basket if the server was lost? I thought you had to wait 48 hours before you could declare it missing? Unless it crashes in which case you should get the other driver's licence and details and contact your insurance company?
