I was just fiddling about on the computer last night (2 am this morning to be more precise), when a message popped up saying something about putting the clock back - and by implication giving me permission to stay awake and continue fiddling for an extra hour.
Now it's getting dark before 5 pm. Soon it'll be dark by 4 pm. I hate that. Why can't they leave our time alone? British Summer Time and GMT . . . I've never understood why we have to have all this clock altering nonsense in the Spring and Autumn. It upsets my already far from reliable body clock. It's bad enough to have the days getting shorter and the nights getting longer without confusing my poor biorhythms even more by sucking me back an hour in the Autumn and blowing me forward an hour in the Spring.
Humbug!
