  • Don’t forget your clocks!!! All us Brits!

    Posted by Martin Cole on March 23, 2006 at 12:22 pm

    After giving us all the bad news 6 months ago to put our clocks back.
    Seems like 6 years ago this winter has really dragged on and on. 🙁

    I am reminding us all that those long evenings are on their way :lol1:
    Don’t forget to put your clocks forward Saturday night :lol1:

    Pain in the arse having to get up at 2am to do it though 🙂

    Next week it wont be getting dark till around 7-7.30 :lol1:
    Sign writing vans outside on those long warm evenings are just around the corner??

    Just thought I’d remind you that I’m off to Spain first thing in the
    morning to play a bit of golf, I’ve just heard it’s going to be 76 degrees
    out there 😎 😎 😎 It’s tuff but someones got to do it! :lol1:

    Cheers Dave, enjoy I will.
    Only going for 4 days, bit of a stress reliever
    got so much work on at the moment it will be good to switch off for a few days.

    You going to the sign show Dave? I’ll look forward to buying you a pint. 🙂

    Atomic clocks Martin. That’s the way to go.

    Don’t have to re-set them after a power cut either. 😀
