Default New Daylight saving time for 2007

Starting this year, daylight saving has changed across most of North America from the first Sunday in April to the Second Sunday in March (11th), ending on November 4th.

Don't forget to put your clocks forward next Saturday night folks!

No - it's not a wind-up! http://inms-ienm.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/time..._saving_e.html

Edit to add: For those on Microsoft Vista, the changes are already built in. For those on Windows - updates can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931836/

Hi Calgal

When I saw this in my filofax I thought they must have gotten it wrong - thought it was the week after the UK.

At least I know I am not going mad

I must confess I'm not (I'm waiting on the door bell to ring and can't afford to miss it). However; I do have a fantastic view of the blue skies, sunshine and Rockies through the windows - so enjoying that!

Then, when my awaited caller has been, I will be going out and enjoying it whilst walking the mutt and getting some exercise!

LOL what a brave man - you're on! (I've already got the whip ). Sure you've got the stomach for it?

(I have - and I assure you; it's definitely NOT the kind you're thinking!! )

Nope she's out tonight.

A friend had two tickets to the Rod Stewart concert and asked Mrs_P if she would go with her.

She's not really a huge fan of his but why say no to a free ticket.
