That'll be old age for you  ::)

Most of mine do it automagically, those which don't are now correct having been wrong since we moved the clocks back  :nowink: I say it every year - we should stop messing around with them, there's no point anymore.

Our kitchen clock is only correct for six months of the year!   We're used to it now, just got to get used to it telling the correct time. :D

Our congress repealed "Daylight Savings Time" this year, so we no longer set clocks back and forth!   :D We are fixed on the spring version, so the morning stays darker, but I end up with a little daylight after my work day, which suits me fine.  :)

Of my timers and clocks which don't adjust automatically, my cooker timer took longer to move just one hour forward than everything else put together!

I somehow managed to set the timer alarm, couldn't work out how to cancel it, and then couldn't find the instructions for the damned thing - by pressing the three buttons like a demented trumpet player I somehow managed to hit the right combination and restore things back to normal (eventually.) :blush:

We usually find one out of sync around May...

This year, I even remembered the little cheapo clock we have in the loo..:0~

Don't want to brag BUT I managed to alter the time on the clock in my car. It was a fluke of almighty proportions, couldn't do the kitchen clock but that's what you have grandchildren for

I've given up trying to work mine out  :wacko:

I just switch the power off and on again and the clock starts flashing, ready to re-set to the right time  :blush:  :lol:

The biggest scare is when you get in the car, see the clock and have this horrible feeling that you're late for a meeting or even worse...
