Does that mean we set our alarms an hour later too?

Sorted out all the electronic clocks

thermostat in the hall
central heating master control
living room clock
Kitchen timer
microwave
bedroom clock mains
travelling clock
sound system in kitchen
sound system in living room

Only the computer and VHS recorder updated themselves automatically.

Apart from this hassle the biggest problem is adjusting our body clocks!!!!!

Thanks W/L, I'd forgotten the central heating timer, don't forget the car.

I'd rather be on one hour forward all the time (ie to be the same as Europe). Anyone know where there is a pressure group I can align to?

Ah ha! The car, yes I'd forgotten about that too

The central heating is reading the correct time, but thgat's only because I never changed it back last time (I have it set to 24 hour from October to April as a rule )

My bathroom clock's battery has need replacing for quite some time anyhow, and as I wasn't completely sure myself as to whether the clocks changed last night, or tonight, I had BT give me a reminder call this morning just in case

Thanks David for the reminder about the car

I'd also overlooked our watches and the mobile phones.

Perhaps we had better put up a complete check list for the next time change !!!!

The way the board software works is that it is supposed to be GMT and everyone has the option to change the timezone it shows for them in their user control panel

http://www.the-scream.co.uk/forums/m...on=editoptions

Its possible I could change it en-masse, but I`d rather not

Isn't it always on a Saturday night??

What I want to know is why is it at such a strange time ie 2 am or 1 am??

Err.........

Any particular reason the post clock hasn't been reset.

I'm posting this at 22:03, but the post timer will say 21:03 I think!



I was a minute off!

Have you altered your time in your control panel. Mine shows your post as 22.04.

You need to change your timezone to GMT +1 in your user options, as above.

Changing the timezone for the whole board isn`t the correct way as far as I can tell..
