[Politics] spring fall forwards back - change the current system ? chronometer gubbins

[wardy wonder land]

well - what do you want ?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Keep it dark

 

[Questions]

I want Christmas in February and a complete shut down of all the mills and factories for a week in august. Only in an England mind. Easter can then slot nicely into a late June slot.

 

[jonny.rainbow]

Change it by 30 minutes.

Best of both worlds.

Where’s the ‘IDGAF’ option ? Get the same amount of daylight either way so doesn’t matter

But above all I want to see a revival of corned beef sandwhichs with or without mustard.

[Is it PotG?]

Well I for one am seriously fecked off with having to get up at 2am or whatever twice a year and changing 5 clocks around the house.

Bin it.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I think you'll find that it's spring forward, fall back.

And that puts us permanently out of sync with the common market, which is good enough for me.

I presume the OP rightly assumed that the IDGAFs wouldn't be arsed to vote so there wasn't a point in wasting a box?

It really annoys me come August when you still have warm days, it starts getting dark at 8:30

Not up here it doesn't.

Spring fall forwards back?

Come again!?

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Where's the UTC option ? Voted no anyway.

 

[pb21]

Tweak it.

At the moment it's back on the last Sunday in October and forward on the last Sunday in March.

I think change it to back on the second Sunday in November and forward on the second Sunday in March (maybe later/earlier).

28 minutes. Just to really annoy everyone.

Sunset in Durham was at 8:31 on 20th August, admittedly 8 days later than in North London.
Still would be better if we had double summer time.

Keep as is. I find my 6 monthly swearathon as I walk around the house altering timepieces quite cathartic.

Sauce? And how much?
