That's not the point, changing time twice a year is

the bloody spanish dont get up till lunchtime so they can feck off

But why would we ditch it just cos European nations have

Because currently the time difference is always the same because Europe observes DST. If they stop and we keep it, the time difference will be different at different times of year, which is an added complication.

If we were permanently on summer time it wouldn't be getting light in the winter till like 9am :worry:

Maybe a slight inconvenience but not majorly so. So they're an hour ahead in France half the year and in the other half we're the same time, it's not that difficult to navigate surely

up here it does not get light till 9 and gets dark at 3 in December

in Shetland its 11 and 2 :omgno:

here it gets light at 8 and it gets dark around 5 or 5:30 in December

Incorrect. They're always ahead bc both them and UK change times almost at the same time.

we really hate washing the dishes when it gets too dark, and we have to put our garbage outside :omgno:


scary when it's so dark, also since we watch crimewatch show here, and we see most break-in's happen when it's dark

Bc it's a silly thing to do, changing time back and forth

:nono:

i usually change time to summer or winter time, before i go to bed


otherwise i'll get crazy when i wake up without changing it

I meant once they stop changing times

Do you wash your dishes in the garden or something

Ah, then you were right of course.

Nicky, do you have vampires in your area?

no :laugh: but in the summer it's still light, and in winters we need to put our lights on, so in summers is better for nature in terms of saving energy

i saw bats the other day yeah :joker:


but vampires no

The Dark is not so bad
Get some LED torches

when i was a kid, they tried one year where they didn't change the clocks, and all the school kids had to have reflectors attached to their clothes. It was a basic safety problem for kids. I would imagine it would be the same again

could be vampire bats :omgno:

best wear a garland of garlic around your neck and hold a crucifix when you put rubbish out

They're stealing your Summer.

We would switch to BST, its well known that BST fits best for modern life.

countries can choose which one they want to make permanent
