Changing the clocks

#11 Post by michael86 »

Most of our clocks change automatically. The cars' clocks don't, so I sometimes change them when I get round to it, otherwise I just subtract one hour. The clock in the garden, on the wall of the house, is to much trouble to take down so I leave that on summer time. We don't go in the garden so much in the winter.
When the clocks go back, an Irish lad I used to work with used to say to me, "It gets late early now Mick". The Irish have a lovely way with words.

I noticed a minute ago that all the most recent posts in Active Topics have posting times an hour or so ahead of the current real time. Is that something I need to change - or is it that the forum hasn't changed its clock?

The forum is set to automatically update for daylight saving and the time is correct for me.
If you click on the little drop down arrow by your username at the top right of the forum page - then click on User Control Panel - then click on the tab along the top which says Board Preferences - Scroll down and check your time zone and change it if necessary.

I just leave it on daylight saving and it automatically adjusts.
