BST (British Summer Time)

If you are in the UK did you remember to turn your clocks forward an hour last night? We lose an hour but get this back in the autumn when we go back to GMT. At least we get an extra hour of light in the evenings, which is good.

I not sure when BST first started (WW2?), but it is good idea. There was even thought of adopting BST all year around. I think clocks are also advanced in some European countries too, but I'm not sure if they move at the same date.

Clocks go forward tonight

In the UK, clocks go FORWARD an hour to British Summer Time (0100 GMT becomes 0200 BST). It means we get less time in bed, but the evenings are lighter again. It will not be dark until after 1930 BST, which will be good.

Of course, we are now in grass cutting season again. I did a small cut about a week ago and will probably cut again next week.
