I glanced at Rice Cooker clock while washing up, 20:51 - nearly 9pm? Why do I feel so tired? Took me a moment to realise it’s not on BST (British Summer Time), so it’s actually nearly 10pm. Stupid system, but I felt my tiredness was more justified 🤷 #AbolishDaylightSaving #BritishSummerTime

Remember many years ago an experiment whereby the clocks were not put back in the autumn and were left on British Summertime (BST).
It resulted in the evenings being lighter and the mornings darker.
A couple of the disadvantages that often featured in the news reports at the time were children having to travel to school in the dark and that for people in Scotland, it didn't get light until mid-morning.
Apart from that, I can't recall whether any other conclusions were reached when the experiment ended and we reverted to ending daylight-saving the following autumn.
As a footnote, imagine living in the town of Longyearbyen in the arctic archipelago of Svalbard.
A few weeks ago, this 'land of the midnight sun' was experiencing 24-hour daylight.
Today however, the sun will rise just after 11.30am, then set again just ten minutes later.
After that brief appearance, the sun will stay below the horizon until mid February next year!

Out and about in the Northumbrian countryside on the first day of British Summer Time (that's the time zone we're on, rather than the season).
Lot's of bright spring sunshine warming up the ground and new growth everywhere.
Got to love this optimistic time of the year!

I find it so interesting that #BritishSummertime starts at 1:00 AM on March 30th but ends at 2:00 AM on October 26th. I wonder why they don't keep the start and end time uniform.

Remember the clocks spring forward tonight 🕑

You may lose an hour of sleep but the evenings will become much lighter 🌅

Looking forward to putting the clocks forward 1 hour tonight, moving to British Summer Time and the much lighter evenings that follow. This particular clock, mounted on the outside wall of Wells Cathedral in Somerset, installed between the C14th and C15th.

Glad it’s #Saturday, but sad that it’s the shortest weekend of the year.

⌚ REMEMBER: Overnight between Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th this weekend,
clocks go FORWARD on hour ☀️

This means that on Sunday 30th the sun won't set until 19:44! 🥳 And we won't see sunsets earlier than this until 8th September!

What are your outdoors/adventure goals for this coming season?

Tory councillor Alan Riley believes that more canings are needed. “More whippings would do a lot of good,” Mr Riley said. He thought that some teachers were too scared to use the cane because of the risk of legal proceedings against them.

I think all the clocks are correct now.

When are we abolishing this nonsense?
