This weekend the clock goes back 1 hour or is it forward ?

Now come on, is it because of the farmer's or the school children or neither ?????? Everyone tell me a difference story

Why do we do it ?

Is it only in the UK do it ?

it goes back to the first world war when the clocks were changed to give more light for farming so more production could take place. Bit pointless really as any farmer is up when its light! Spring forward fall back....youve got an extra hour in bed on sunday!!!!

To me it always seems more miserable the dark nights. Think I must have SAD or some such disorder.

I was just telling my sis in Hants on the phone earlier that I suffer from SAD in the summer when cloud obscures the sun!!!!

She agreed, and she gets a better deal in Hampshire.

These amber glasses cheer me up on a miserable day ! Also good for driving at night, fog & rain......
