This is a reminder that British Summer Time started this morning, so our UK members should alter the setting in their profiles to 'Currently Observing DST - Yes'. Richard

Thank you very much for the reminder, Richard. I thought about altering the setting in my profile but I just realized I'd have to change it again in just a few days when I go back to England so I won't bother Lots of love Stephany

That's so funny, Richard. We just ended our daylight saying! Funny how the world works, isn't it??

Ever since I adjusted my profile to observing DST, when I'm logged in the time of posts appears correct but if I view the forum as a guest, the times are an hour behind.
Any ideas why or how to solve this?

Hi James,
If you modify your profile, you will be able to change the settings to show that we are currently observing Daylight Saving.
Whilst logged out, you will see the defualt setting for the forum which is Coordinated Universal Time (ie, GMT). Only when you log in will the software recognise who you are and the time will be overridden by that determined in your personal profile.
Hope that helps! Roger

Hello everyone As no one has mentioned this yet, I though perhaps I should Anyone observing Daylight Saving Time in their profile should amend the setting from 'yes' to 'no' in order to see the correct time on the forum. Also, anyone out there with DSLR's - Have you remembered the clock in your camera . Best wishes Grant P.S. Anyone who forgot to put their clocks back an hour will be an hour late early for whatever they were planning this morning!

Hello Grant! Actually they'll be an hour early, unless they put their clocks forward by mistake in which case they'll be two hours early! One little tip. If you adjusted your watch during the hour after midnight, check the date is showing correctly. Best Wishes, Richard

Well done Richard on your timing! The trouble is ALL the clocks and timing pieces that have to alter. Only PCs adjust automatically. Guess who forgot to alter the car clock and arrived outside Waitrose this morning complaining they were late when in fact it was he who was an hour ahead of schedule! Peter S.

Also, anyone out there with DSLR's - Have you remembered the clock in your camera . Hi Grant, My PC set itself back an hour last night at 2 am and when I got up this morning, it had set itself back another hour so it was an hour behind and I had to manually correct it. My camera lives permanently on GMT, even when I'm on holiday in Europe. So if i need to, I can always work out the true local time for certain. I'd change it though if I went to the Americas, the Far East or Downunderland. Maybe. Cheers, Dave

Well, I think changing from BST to GMT is a waste of time. Last night, we gained an hour so what did we do with it? We spent half of it altering the clocks and the other half talking about it on the forum! Timecheck for those who are still confused: "At the third stroke, it will be half past twenty to from" Roger
