Hi guys,

Is there any chance of having the forum clock adjusted so that it is in line with British Winter time please? Nearly gave myself a heart attack when I saw my last post was at 5pm and I hadn't even started tea yet!!! :shock:

Then realised a split second later that it was actually 4pm :oops: :D

Catches me out every time so PLEASE can you change it :D

Thanks
VPM

P.S. Apologies if this subject has already been broached - did a quick scan through but couldn't see it (but then I have two very noisy, excitable and squabbling children creating massive amounts of very distracting background noise, rampaging around the house at the moment :roll:)

You change your own clock.

Well for the next six months I'll be driving around with my car clock out of synch because I can't remember how to adjust it. At least I'll arrive an hour early for all my appointments? Or will I be an hour late? I can never remember :lol:
