I understand the clocks go forward tonight. I hope you will be up in the church tower at 2am :!: Let us know how it went :twisted:

Dear Alan, i must admit to a terrible sin, ever since i have been winding the Church clock, i have often thought about altering the clock to the opposite of what it should be, as in when it goes forward an hour, putting it back an hour. :twisted: :) :wink:

Bet my phone wouldn't stop ringing all day. :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

You could always try turning your clock back 30 years - then you'd be in the same time zone as NW Wales :wink:

Poor Herby

He'll be up there for quite a while now, turning his little handle. :twisted:

As for turning the clock back, where would you turn it back to? I'd love to have lived in Dublin in the late '70's early '80's. What a vibe the place had, a lot like Liverpool at that time. Troubled but vibrant. I would also have changed my decision and gone travelling with my first boyfriend. Who knows where I would have ended up

What would anyone else do if you could go back to a point in your own lifetime. Would you change anything or do the same again?
Lots of love

Lizzie

Hi Gilly,
I would dearly love to live in France but I fear I have left it too late. Many years ago I spent a year there and always vowed I would live there someday.
I have got to renew my driving licence for the second time shortly so you can see why.
JB.

I would have saved you some of my vegetarian chilli if i'd known. Never mind.

I prefer cheese and onion on toast but go with whatever floats your boat
Lots of love

Lizzie
