[updated:LAST EDITED ON 26-10-02 AT 04:36 PM (GMT)]Well in the Northern Hemisphere winter is finally upon us,so I would just like to remind you all that “Winter Time” will commence at 1.00 a.m.Clocks and watches should be put back one hour at that time.We are all lucky to get an hours extra in bed,though the nights are now drawing in.To people in the US this is a warning for next week.
In the Southern Hemisphere remember you go forward an hour so the same advice,put your clocks forward!
I know there are a few exceptions,Iceland being one of them.
Good thing is that the forum clocks will go back to normal at last!

No thanks, I’d prefer sun… or real snow, but not THAT disgusting weather. You can’t even drive fast on highways…

RE: A Friendly Reminder….
Winter….hmmmm.heard about that once…….teehee. Well if its nearly winter time in the UK, theres only one thing to do…move out here. Current temp a balmy 30 degrees today, sea temp 24 degrees (like taking abath…with fish) and I’ve only just put a t-shirt on for the first time today. somebody said they thought they’d seen a cloud but they got laughed at and shut up. Seriously, winter time out here is great. You want snow ? an hours drive to the Troodos mountain range for ski’ing, leave at midday and an hour later, its shorts on the beach for water ski’ing till late then a barbie or settle down to a few cold ones. You’ve no idea how tough it is out here.
Cheers
(now no-ones gonna talk to me !)
