Start Of BST. Clocks Forward.

I normally post this as a reminder on Saturday but annoyingly, I forgot! 😂

So I hope everyone remembered to put their Clocks Forward last night as it's officially the start of Spring.

An hours less sleep! 😂

Lovely, the start of lighter nights. 😊

So they stole an hour from us, again.

And on Mother's Day again, too. Pppppffffftttttt!

Never mind me, I am grumpy after having waited up to push the clocks forward an hour at 1am, why can't they shunt time forward, at, say, 7pm on the Saturday, so I can do the deed after my dinner, when I am full and (relatively) happy?

Ah well, Happy Spring and, to all the Mums out there, happy (short) Mother's Day. 👍😉

I never normally wait @pgn. We do all the clocks before bedtime and although I thought of it twice, I forgot to post on here (I was in shock after F1 qualifying yesterday!!) 😂

I'd also forgotten about Mothers day. My lads and grandson came yesterday armed with flowers and cards, knowing it was Mothers Day but also the F1 race today.

Dull day really for first day of Summer,

Thank you for the post @Cleoriff

I actually remembered the clocks go forward but forgot it is the first day of Spring.

Changed the clocks before I went to bed (I`m not staying up till 1pm to do that 😂 ) and woke up early this morning so no problems.

I read for a long time in bed @Mi-Amigo so it was 7.30 (6.30 really) when I woke up!

My companion called me yesterday about tea time to remind me about BST ... = ... good job as I would have turned up an hour late for our meal out on Mothers Day ..... I asked him out as I don't want to be alone today ..... my mother's and dad's ashes were scattered during the week and it is my 1st Mothers Day without her ..... so ..... want to be happy today ..... had a very funny cat card from my son and daughter-in-law ..... bought my own cheap and cheerful daffodils in the kitchen window bottom among my cat ornaments.

Happy Mothers Day to Everyone XX
