I hadn't forgotten, but last year I did. Woke up on the Sunday and decided to go swimming with the children. The pool opens at 8.30am and of course at that time of the day it is empty. Got to the pool, everything all locked up. Seethed that it was closed, then saw a clock attached to a school and realised what I had done.

You're welcome. I think it was you that said you'd liked to be warned of petrol strikes and other things.

This time tomorrow and we'll be plunged into darkness. It's so depressing!
