No.
Assuming you're in the UK the clocks will go back one hour at 2 am (BST) on Sunday.0 -
Yes, this Sunday (25th Oct 2009). In the UK.0

Isn't it supposed to be 2am that the clocks change? (Don't know who thought that would either be useful or easy to achieve!! :roll: )0

The time changes every midnight - usually to the next day.0

I thought it changed at 1am?
Nightclub round here used to close at 1am (I know :roll: ) but on the night the clocks went back, it effectively stayed open till 2am, if you see what I mean. We got an extra hour, anyway.
All's good now, cause it's usually open till 3am or 4am.0 -
No, it's 2am when moving back an hour, and 1am when moving forward an hour. It's something to do with legality of when a child is born I believe, so that it is definitely born on the Sunday rather than the Monday. I think. That could be just an old wives tale I've heard though.It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

It's probably just so that it doesn't mess up everyone's day by being right in the middle of the day. If it was 1PM and you had a meeting at 1:30PM, there'd be two 1:30PMs, and people's heads would explode trying to understand it. Put it in the early hours and everyone just knows they get one more or one less hour in bed.0

The baby story doesn;t make sense, if they were both at 1am, the baby would still be born on the same date. and besides, I'm sure plenty of babies are born on the cusp of midnight, does it really matter?thekickingmule wrote:No, it's 2am when moving back an hour, and 1am when moving forward an hour.

It is 2 a.m. So we will be back on Greenwich Mean Time, which is zulu. When we are in the summer time zone, we are in the alpha zone. The mate is in software engineering and the clock change weekend is a bit of a pain for them, having to resync all of the equipment. Bit confusing which countries actually do the clocks now anyway. Don't think Germany do?0

Yes but everybody knows that Wales is in a different time zone anyway. It's called the 18th Century.0 -
That, sadly is very true. Well, I'd say very early 20th century though. 0

First clock I did last night I put forward :oops: Luckily it was only the microwave. Only did 5 out of the 8 appliances/gadgets with clocks.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0
