Clocks

[pete50]

Stupid, idiotic and potentially dangerous practice of mucking about with the clocks twice a year. It benefits no-one and messes people's body clocks up for days or even weeks. Abolish it!

The E.U. is proposing to do just that - so few on here will think it a good idea.

I quite enjoy it when it suddenly stays light for an extra hour in the evening.

 

[EFLImpudence]

Have it all year then.

Moi aussi. Dunno what all the fuss is about. Doesn't affect me personally. Pete does come across as a bit of a snowflake though.

It wouldn't be 'sudden' then.

 

[motorbiking]

Summer time all year round for me please.

Depends on your latitude, those further north have more to gain from clock changes.

No, I didn't realise it was the suddenness he thought was the best bit.

Don't you remember what happened years ago when they abolished it ? All the problems it caused and so it was brought back ?? We've had silly politicians saying the same as you because they're too young to remember it's been tried once before and caused problems. British summer time is fine contemplate why it was brought in its a sensible thing because of our geographical position ...... Now shut up you stupid ignorant boy !

Really? What else actually happens then that you could derive from his post? In fact, little else actually happens in any case.

 

[EddieM]

Not really.

Why, the closer you are to the equator the less the variation of day/night between the seasons.

That's not really true. The further north you are the longer it stays light in the Summer anyway without changing the clocks.
