Default Why is my clock wrong??

I know that it is about 11:20pm right now, so why does British Expats tell me it's only 10:20pm??

I've checked my settings and I'm definitely in the right time zone.

Anyone know?

Think it runs off GMT not BST. The time on here was right until the clocks changed two weeks ago. I have noticed the same

You need to alter ure forum settings......

click on my forum at top

then edit options.....


scroll down past half way to date n time options.....

you will see time offset..... there is a dropdown menu..... click on GMT +1:00 CET Central Europe time.....

this should work...... then when clocks go back.....you will change back....

love boomie

You think you have problems. Post times are really confusing to me when generated from Oz.

It's 9.00 am here; see what the posting time comes up as!!!

Mrs Booboo hasn't even got up yet.

Cheers, Mr Booboo

Oh my god, you've confused me even more now


Are you in Eastern Time Zone for Australia then? I think that shows as +10hrs so it should be 10am shouldn't it???
