Yes, it's that time again when we try to keep a straight face by announcing 'British Summer Time' is here. This Sunday we all get an hour less in bed as the clocks change to mirror the supposed lighter mornings.

The US has just had a major change to their Daylight Savings, in that they've changed the date when the clocks change, after a decision was made to review the times. Should we do the same or do you think it works as it is?

As it is, we're in line with most of Europe for our changes, so they stay in front of us (mostly by 1 hour for neighbouring European countries). That certainly makes it easier if you're in a job that involves contacting people in Europe. The US changes have meant that my boss is in his office earlier as well, which was a bit weird to get used to, but quite useful at times.

Everyone else ready for the clock changes? Do you dread the summer change or look forward to the winter one? Have you ever got it wrong and turned up for work an hour early/late?

I'll lose some sleep at the early stages, but i should be fine. Typically the light wakes me, but other times i just sleep like a log and wake up an hour later.
