Here's a good way to remember whether it's forward or back.

SPRING - forward
FALL - back.

When I was a kid my uncle put his clock forward instead of back, and picked us up for church two hours early!  ;D

I find the extra hour a nuisance, as I like don't enjoy lie ins.

I was awake early so I made a cup of herbal tea and went back to bed to read. Very civilised.

Nobody forces you to stay in bed the extra hour.

By the way, are we going to use this thread to have the biannual pointless discussion about whether we should be changing the clocks at all?

I am glad because I know I slept later than I thought.

I went out last night.

I spent the extra hour this morning using iPlayer to catch up with the tv programmes I missed last night.

I do mine by hand, if they aren't automatic, but you stick with your method if it works for you...  :o

No, but I don't usually get up until 7.10am according to the clock, I like my routines.

Most of our many clocks/watches are radio controlled, so much easier.

My clocks went back about 6 weeks ago. Having to get up early every morning I could really do with the extra hour from about September onwards.

Well cry me a river, think of poor Saskatchewan. Everybody in that province has to stay on daylight savings time, all year long.
