[b]:siren:IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN, 2010 EDITION - [highlight]CLOCKS HAVE CHANGED, PLEASE PROCEED TO TURN YOUR CLOCKS BACKWARDS ONE HOUR[/highlight]:siren:[/b]
You're going to need to put your clocks back 1 hour at 2AM BST (so your clock shows 1AM).
[B]IT'S CURRENTLY [img]http://luaduck.co.uk/Files/timeplease.php[/img] BST[/B] (I HAVE TO FUCKING RUN THE SCRIPT TO GENERATE THAT IMAGE FFFF)
[b]Pros of doing this:[/b]
You'll get up for work / school at the correct time
You'll get a lay-in of 1h
[b]Cons of doing this:[/b]
You've gotta go around and modify all the goddamn clocks in the house while cursing
Note: Your PC will automagically put the clock back for you if you're syncing with a network time server. Make sure you are!
[b][highlight]THIS INFORMATION DOES NOT PERTAIN IF YOU ARE IN THE U.S.A OR A COUNTRY THAT DOES NOT USE SUMMER TIME[/highlight][/b]
Also use this thread for discussion of how Summertime is completely pointless and how we should deport everyone using it
Canada also uses the first Sunday in November, like the US.
Just so you know.
Oh shit I'm going to sync the crap out of my clocks.
I love how windows 7 warns you about this now :D

Same with Vista. I don't know about XP, it's been ages since I've last used that operating system.
So what you UK folks are saying that it's Daylight's Savings time again?
Or is this different your terminology is very queer.
1 extra hour to get wasted, hell yeah. :dance:

UK / Europe, are you Brits extra special or something?
Rated OP clock.
The UK is part of Europe, even if we don't accept your shit currency.
I'm going to rebel against the clock-industrial complex and actually set mine [b]ahead[/b] an hour.
In fact, I'm going to set it ahead 70 minutes instead. That'll fucking show them.
Read it as Cocks go black on sunday

Atleast we don't worshit a queer on our money.
Actually, nevermind. Here, we don't use the Euro, so whine as much as you want.
heh, my phone and computer automatically go back anyway
Oh mah gawd, rly`?
Fun fact: Heart attacks and various other illnesses go up massively in the first three days of winter time.

That was a dumb sentence.
Thanks for telling me this! Ive got my first day of my job tomorrow and i would have gone an hour early.
Ah finally, I' hate waking up when it's dark.

That's what I love with Autumn and Winter, dark mornings. So cozy when you sit at the table and it's pitch dark outside.

[B]IT'S CURRENTLY [img]http://luaduck.co.uk/Files/timeplease.php[/img] GMT[/B] [/QUOTE]
If the clocks haven't changed isn't it BST not GMT?
[QUOTE=GreenDolphin;17984697]Same with Vista. I don't know about XP, it's been ages since I've last used that operating system.[/QUOTE]
XP doesn't warn, it just changes it silently.
Right-O chaps!
You gain 1 hour, and waste it by changing every single clock in the house. That is quintessentially British.
I don't have any clocks :smug:
Thanks for the heads up, one hour's lie in for me!
Its funny how you are rated Clocks.
