Time changes.
Not so much the actual time change, but having to change the time on so many things. Seems a lot do it automatically these days, but the cooker/microwave don't and there's always one that gets forgotten.
Happened to be the thermostat, so was a tad nippy this morning :/

Thermostats with programmable clocks often do change themselves, unfortunately if it is older than 3-4 years, it will change on the old schedule, so, Bob, there's a good chance it will spring forward again three weeks from now. If yours doesn't change itself, it's probably time for a new thermostat.

I'll be pissed if it changes again in a couple weeks
