    British Summer Time

    Clocks in the UK change this weekend, so don’t forget to change yours forward by an hour on Sunday !

    You will lose an hour’s sleep . The Philippines will then be 7 hours ahead of British Summer Time .

    I used to love this time when we changed the clocks, it made it easy to talk to Ems when she was still over in the phils

    Means when I do a nightshift I don't go to work in the dark and come home in the dark. Funny how I never do a nightshift when the clocks go forward. always seem to be rostered on when they go back and end up doing a 13 hour shift!

    Yeah, but if you want to say hello when they've just out of bed in the Phils, you have to stay up later.
