i'm glad we don't have to do that here! i'd get confused if i lived in a state that kept changing the clocks! i have to figure out how to reset my watch every half a year or so(i lost the instruction booklet)!!!

Yea, changing the time back and forth
is a pain--in the wrist!

Sometimes
I dont bother with it so I just have to
remember to add or subtract an hour!

Putting the clocks backwards/forwards confuses me, it effects my day my timing is all out. I know why they change, but I do not see the point!

Woah! I was complaining about it getting slightly darker earlier recently, that is nothing compared to being pitch black by 5 o'clock. That would totally confuse me! At what time does it start to get dark in summer, is it a lot later?

Seeing as you claim to live in England, you should know how dark it gets at 5:15. It's dark at the same time here in kent. Scotland is only a few hundread miles away!!

i hate time changing.....it blows up my mind, makes the day shorter...

we have Alexandria in Egypt on the coast of the mideterian.." white sea " it was named that way bcz the great Alexander when he first conquered Egypt it was the first place where he landed his ships

i figured out there is abt 44 countries all over the world named Alexandria hehehehe can u believe it?

Today it did not get dark until about 6:30, I don't remember it getting that much earlier, this early on. Later on, more in winter it does. I really want to go to scotland, it seems fun!
