I can't help myself, sorry, but I despair at this time of the year, I really do.
I'm not alone though.
The S.A.D season is upon us yet again. sad32:
Why won't the leave the bloody clocks alone?
If the jocks and cows desire it so much, then let them have it, but the rest of us want every available minute of daylight that we can possibly gleen from this already miserable enough rancid rip off country of ours surely?
There's always one exception though mind. ::)

She reckons it creates a nice cosy warm atmosphere, closing the door in the evening listening to the rain battering against the windows. confused:
I suggest she been reading far too many Boodle and Dunthorpe books, and besides, GROWLER towers will not be a warm and cosy residence this winter, as I've disconnected the bastard thieving gas fire and c/h system, and placed wooly jumpers and blankets in every room as a replacement. eveilgrin:

There is the same amount of daylight only it's at the time of day when honest working folk are about their toil.

I understood what you wrote just not what you meant you mud-plugging, seat stitcher. ;)
The number of minutes of daylight available is the same after the clocks go back as before.
Some of us see every available minute regardless of the clock.
If you came home from the pub/wheel-nicking trips earlier you could get up and enjoy the day from dawn to dusk. cloud9:

So there. Told you I wasn't alone. razz:
Up to 80,000 jobs could be created in the tourism and leisure industries if clocks were not turned back an hour every October, a new report claims.
The Policy Studies Institute report said £3 billion could be generated each year in the sectors, while fuel consumption in factories would be cut if there was an extra hour of daylight in the winter months.
Tourist activity would increase by up to 4%, creating between 60,000 and 80,000 jobs, according to the report's author, Dr Mayer Hillman.
The report, published ahead of this weekend's time change, said darker evenings brought increased demand for lighting and central heating.
The study was supported by the British Association of Leisure Parks Piers and Attractions (including GROWLER) and the Tourism Alliance as a "bold but simple" way of boosting the economy.
I'm going to start a petition.

Maybe he's an attraction?

No. An attractive attraction. cloud9:
Tis true what they say though. The amount of lecky and gas saved in the evenings would be tumultuous. More business's are active early evening than early morning.

Another thing. Surely if the clocks stayed on BST, we would then be on the same time as most western European countries during the winter? That's got to be good for trade across the nations surely? rubschin:

Why would they need an extra 80,000 people on November 1st if the clocks didn't go back...? rubschin:
-
And all the people that they now employ to put the clocks back/forwards would lose their jobs... sad24:
-
Why would they need an extra 80,000 people on November 1st if the clocks didn't go back...? rubschin:
Because, most tourist attractions don't open until after 9:00, and during the summer many close at dusk for H&S reasons, meaning 3-4 pm in mid December, but 4-5 pm if they left the ruddy clocks alone, thus creating more working hours in the week requiring more staff and rotation.
I'll have to close my business at 3 pm on dreary dark December afternoons, as it can't be run in the dark, and I'm damned sure punters aren't going to arrive at 8:30 am to take advantage of the lighter mornings. noooo:
Hence, I personally could do more work and earn more if they stopped fannying around. cussing:

80,000 extra jobs tho? eeek: No way Pedro... noooo:

I'll e mail them for an explanation if you like. ;)
Being a supporter of their arguements in favour of, I'm sure they'll reply. whistle:
As for the cows not being happy about it, why? They get milked in the evening too surely, and since when have they insisted on being milked in daylight anyway?
No. It's just another government scam to get us to use more fuel to swell their coffers....bit like the traffic lights scam.

There.
E mail sent today. We'll wait and see if they reply. rubschin:
Dear Sir/Madam,
With reference to you recent report regarding the argument for the retention of B.S.T.
Whilst being totally in favour of leaving the clocks alone and supporting any campaign to retain BST all year 'round, it has to be questioned as to how you actually arrived at the figures you have obtained?
Up to 80,000 jobs could be created in the tourism and leisure industries if clocks were not turned back an hour every October, a new report claims.
How did you come to this conclusion?
The Policy Studies Institute report said £3 billion could be generated each year in the sectors, while fuel consumption in factories would be cut if there was an extra hour of daylight in the winter months.
I can see quite clearly and agree vehemently regarding the reduction of the nationwide fuel consumption that this government is continuously demanding from the great weary British public, as the vast majority of business's start up at 9:00 am or later, and would in fact gain an hour of daylight in the afternoons during working hours. However I'm intrigued and interested as to where exactly the extra 80,000 jobs and the extra £3 billion of generated income will be coming from?
A full and comprehensive detailed explanation would be most welcome to further my arguments against the cynics that I regularly speak to, who are doubting your facts and figures.
I therefore look forward to receiving your prompt reply to further my vocal support for the case against GMT,
Yours faithfully,
Growler, My Time

Problem with that is that we will still have to go through the ritual twice a year.
Why can't they just pick a time and stick to it all year?
If necessary change the hours that people go to work and children go to school.
As for farmers .... with modern farming they work all bloody hours, when they feel like it, using spotlights as bright as bloody searchlights to enable them to plough/harvest or whatever through the fecking night! We often have them in the fields round here until one in the morning! They were at it last evening until gone ten, 5 tractors up and down the village hauling trailers of God knows what.

I'm actually finding and coping with Growler Winter Time (GWT) quite satisfactory so far. happy088
There will be occassions during the next 5 months that I'll have to 'go with the flow' no doubt, so to speak, but generally I'm well chuffed.

Do you ever wonder why you have to spend half of this morning resetting every electronic device in your home? And why tomorrow you’ll struggle to get to work on time, bleary from dragging yourself out of bed an hour early?
I expect not. If you did, you’d find that the whole thing was invented by a beetle-hunter called George Hudson, who was annoyed that shift-work kept him from pursuing his hobby in the evenings; oh and it was also championed by a property developer called William Willett who was annoyed by the way dusk fell while he was playing golf. The House of Commons repeatedly rejected it as a silly idea. Eventually, in a moment of madness, Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany adopted it, and the rest is history.
There’s no such thing as ‘Daylight Saving’. The amount of light stays the same whatever happens. The whole thing is completely pointless, yet we just keep doing it.

Either way cutbacks will be needed in other areas. Chocolate time has to be preserved (as does all food and drink time.)

It certainly wasn't funny. Imagine doing a security check in the middle of the night and suddenly being confronted by some deranged ginger pensioner wearing an old dressing gown and a ratty pair of Y fronts. I didn't know if he wasn't some pervert so I grabbed my baseball bat.
I still have nightmares about that sight scared2:

That is proper nuts !!!
No one had ever better buy me a photo frame with a clock on it noooo:
Too many clocks equates to confusion - I hope they all have the same time displayed.
My stepdad used to collect clocks and there were loads of the noisy things. All set to different variations of the real time so that you could hear the quarter , half hour and hourly chimes, dings and dongs!!!!
Used to drive me insane. All had to be set to silent for when I visited lol:
Not too bad here.
Phone automatically done
Fitbit automatically done lol:
Living room and oven clock are all that needs adjusting.
Microwave is only turned on when in use to avoid the annoying clock situation. :thumbsup:

Because it really is so so easy to get so many people to believe in stupid ideas rather than get them to act sensibly
And IIRC it's something to do with WW1

My body clock hasn't changed either. You know when you have to get up in the night to use the loo (definitely an age thing) and you see the time says 0527hrs and you think sod that, I'll have another hour in bed? Well this morning it said 0627hrs, and I thought hardly worth getting back in bed; so I came down, made a coffee, switched the laptop and telly on, and it said 0538hrs cussing: cussing:

Got to me lock this morning to find an irate elderly boater waiting for me.
"What bloody time do you call this?! I have been waiting here or an hour! I am going to complain to Customer Services!"
Me: I am early, it is ten to nine
Him: it is bloody ten to ten!
I point out his error angel1

Well I've done 5 manually and let 4 do themselves automatically - I think the car does itself. The kitchen clock is still waiting for the signal from Hamburg. I can already think of 3 more I still have to do manually.
Everyone done the VP clock in their profile yet?

:thumbsup: Only car left to do.

If only I could remember how to do them
