Default Time Change

Hi all

Just looking confirmation from anyone with regards to time change in the UK. Am I right in thinking that the time changes in the UK today/tonight?

They are talking about a 2 hour increase in a few years to save energy, that means it will be dark at 23.00 hours or 11 pm for the oldies on here.

My UK clocks went bonkers when the time changed. Didn't think they would given we are 10,000 miles away!

Life was so much simpler in Queensland - none of this working out if I'm 10, 11, 9 or 2984 hours ahead of the UK, depending on the phase of the moon, the length of the grass and whether Sunderland are in the relegation zone yet or not.

Ahhh.. those were the days

Does this mean I am 1 hour less than 15 years behind the UK or ahead of it?

I could have sworn I saw a top-loader washing machine the other day ... AND a friend of ours has an LCD TV that is less that 50".

You must be calculating it wrong.
