Title: turning the clocks back
Post by: rowlandwells on October 28, 2018, 09:08
 have you remembered to put your clocks back ? there's going to be a lot of armchair gardening me thinks when them old seed catalogues start coming through the door  :D

its time for those winter jobs for me repairing tools cleaning inside the greenhouse washing pots and trays all those little jobs to do to pass the day away and I'm sure someone mite want  some decorating doing   :nowink:

and I've still got the allotments to plough that's a good half a day taken care of with a warm coat and gloves and you never know someone mite bring me a flask of coffee I love it when you see that ground turned over for the winter to do its job then I know I can shut the gate on the allotments till next spring till we start all over again  ;)

I remembered, and stayed up late reading my book so that I slept for my normal 8hrs and woke at the 'right' time :)

All the clocks here do it themselves - apart from the alarm clock which barks  ::)

The CH does it automatically, the rest are all manual.  But I did the alarm before I went to bed.  Mrs Bouquet

Yes, we did remember, and I got out of bed at the "right" time, so everything seems fine.... but not looking forward to it getting dark shortly after 4pm though  ::)

Mostly all our clocks/devices do it for themselves apart from the ovens,boiler,cars, kitchen clock & the underfloor heating in the bathroom, hubby did all but my car, he was a bit surprised I think that I managed it without asking how, only took me 10 minutes lol  As for waking up I woke at the new 8.30 when hubby brought me a cuppa 😂
