Apparently a lot of America is experimenting with having an earlier start to their Day Light Savings thingy this year. I'm hoping in our (rather pathetic) monkey-see monkey-do Government* will follow suit. This time round they can claim they're doing it for environmental concerns. Although I'd prefer it if they were to stop messing around with the clocks altogether - can't they just pick one and stick with it?


[*It doesn't really matter what flavour of Government the UK gets - they invariably blindly copy US ideas - no matter how inappropriate or wrong-headed or half-baked - and then usually five years behind while totally ignoring all the problems the US has found with their ideas in those intervening years.]
