Should the Clocks Go Back/Forward?

I just believe that the clocks shouldn't go forward or back now.

I'm right in saying that the reason this all started was to help out the farmers?

Well the farmers market isn't what it was now and it's time just to leave it alone.

Does my head in changing clocks

 

Not arsed in the slightest.

 

Given the choice I'd turn them back to about 1964

 

1966 wasn't a bad year .

 

You would be if you had as many clocks as me to change.

 

You old timer.

Can't even think how life was in 1964..

 

Tell you what Rod, these long winter nights must just fly by in your house.

 

'64, '65 & '66 three cups

 

It would make nov and march a little more palatable- get dark around 5 in november rather than 4 o'clock.
More daylight in the afternoon.
Dec and jan will still be crap but hey winter is a bitch.

Mornings are meant to be dark,the start of the day, welcoming you to your world of work.
Afternoons, not so much, keep them lighter.

 

Full employment, Able to move jobs in a week
Cheap housing to buy, Council houses plentiful with cheap rents
Good education and schools
Doctors saw you same day
Hospitals fully funded, No waiting in corridors
Fantastic Music
Cheap food and beer
Groovy clothes
Mini skirts
great pubs and clubs

Oh and no fecking EU

 

Let's not forget the age of free love with the availability of the contraception pill

 

It's based around the old 9-5 work schedule. Not many people do that these days. Changing the clocks is pointless in my opinion. Especially over here in Estonia when it starts to get dark at 2pm anyway. All the clock changing does, is mess up the body clock and the mind - spending most of the day wondering what time it really is.

 

Agreed, I wouldn't mind staying on summer time permanently. As a confirmed owl, light mornings are wasted on me...not to mention, they get in the way of sleeping.
