Default This anti-people propaganda must stop
There’s an ad doing the rounds – you might have seen it – that makes me want to do an
Elvis and shoot the telly. It features a global smorgasbord of kids staring angrily at the
camera, demanding to know when we’re going to save their future. “What is it going to
take for you to do something?” asks a snotty-nosed brat standing in a flood. The answer,
no doubt, is: “When I’ve finished cooking your dinner, washing your clothes and driving
you to football practice.”

I forgot to put my clock back once.

Spoiler:

I took it downstairs to change the battery, I forgot to put it back in my room

the period where the clocks are put back is the most miserable

The downside to clocks going back is it getting dark quicker ,which I don't like.
But we get an extra hour .

I'd stop putting them forward in the Spring, then there wouldn't be the sudden jump back later.

Daylight saving.

I agree.

Plus it's only getting the hour back we lose in the Spring.

I can't see the point of it now.
