While I agree with you about the light, it is the change in time that annoys me the most.
Getting up early is difficult enough without losing an hour of sleep!

I must be the only one who likes it. I love natural light and think it's grreat when it doesn't get dark till 10pm.

 

It has been tried before and wasn't popular if I remember correctly?


You remember correctly @Cleoriff it was hated. Dark mornings and evenings. It was late 60s, early 70s I believe. I remember it because I hadn't been in England all that long. No one liked it including me, and I'm a night person!

Also regarding other EU countries doing this, Spain certainly did. Having an apartment there, the guys in reception were quite pleaed when I notified them. A Message was always posted in the main reception area for the residents.

I would suggest putting Brexit in Room 101, but methinks that's already been done - hopefully it'll quietly rot away in some dank corner, and we can all reduce it to a bad dream...

We could even call it Malice in Blunderland devil

I dislike the time changes simply because it alters the times I can get in touch with family in Thailand who don't have any such nonsense. I could care less when I'm there even though the problem is reversed. I'm in contact with my wife several times a day but when I'm there I only contact family maybe once a week.

Oh I definitely agree with that. Somehow Brexit has fallen by the wayside: good riddance to bad rubbish I say!!!!

While British Summer Time remains the subject of discussion as to whether or not it should be destined to Off Topic Room 101, are there any songs - and "No" Firestarter is definitely not going in - or TV shows you want to send in?
