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.

Nearly 1:00pm so time for a nose bag. cloud9:

I'm getting annoyed now. Banghead
The digi clock in me van, yea, bloody DIGI clock, you might have known ey  ::) doesn't actually do GWT, oh no. noooo:

I've re-set it twice now, but it keeps re-setting itself back to this rancid GMT nonsense. Angry9:
How's it do that then ey, how, and why didn't it do that when I went to Geeeermany in it back in May ey, why? Shrugs:

If it keeps the date as well as the time it will 'know' when the clocks change like...

Why don't you rip it out and get one of those nice cuckoo clocks fitted in the dash?

Had you thought of a sundial?

I have one in the front garden ..... nature's way of telling the time and remarkably accurate.
