Just a quick reminder that the clocks go back an hour at 02:00am tomorrow morning.

If you are on night shift tonight make sure you get paid for the extra hour!

The Great British Winter, when I walked my doggies this morning all the Canadian geese had arrived on the lake 🥶

Sadly the foxes won't be far behind! There are Canada Geese on a small mere not far away from where I live. They don't seem to recognise foxes as a predator and become easy pray for them!

Thank you for the reminder.

I can tell you I never got paid for the extra hour worked on nights....I just made sure I worked the night when the clocks went forward too.

I will be battering down the hatches pray for a warm winter everyone🙂

It feels like winter! About 20 minutes ago I set off for the local corner shop in the rain. It was dark when I got back so dark at 5:00pm tomorrow. Fortunately the shop is self service bar cigarettes that are never on my list as when I spoke only croaks came out. Yep, still struggling... ☹️

You're not kidding! It's been raining here non stop since 8pm on Thursday, finally stopped at 2pm on Saturday. Stuck in the house - couldn't even go to watch Tranmere Rovers - pitch waterlogged! Spent the afternoon painting the living room ceiling, 70% done when the light started to fade, if I don't change the clock in bedroom will be up nice and early to finish the job in the morning 😎

Hmmm not sure if not being able to watch Tranmere Rovers is a good or bad thing 🤔 but well done with painting the ceiling, did it need painting or were you just filling in time!! 😂

Something to do - weather rubbish so rather than just sit here did some painting

Will have to dig out the car's handbook later. The click is integrated with the radio but doesn't use a radio signal. The buttons you have to press and the sequence is totally illogical! ☹️

We don't bother doing the car anymore, far too complicated!!

MichaelJHHeart Star in reply toLezzers

Until my current car it was easy peasy. I did have one car that changed automatically using the radio signal.

Ours is easy after, clocks go forward, clocks go back. Four years of that and between me and hubby I know what button to press and he knows how to shift time. Marvelous 🤣

Changed everything before going to bed last night (right after F1 qualie highlights on C4 - yes I am a Lady Petrolhead). Woke this morning, booted up the laptop...which was for some reason still on BST.

Had to go into settings to toggle and sync.
