    Forgot to alter clocks.

    Yesterday evening we went to a Filipina Silver Wedding Anniversary at Chesterfield, a couple I haven't seen for well over twenty years and it was an amazing gathering at a great venue. Well, this morning took Maritess to work as usual then did my 5 mile walk as usual and then waited for my bus home as usual and it never arrived until an hour later so I said to the driver that the previous bus must have left early because I was in time to catch it and it didn't arrive, he replied what previous bus because I'm the first one today and then it dawned on me, forgot to alter the clocks so I called Maritess to tell her I will be picking her up at 4pm today and we had a good laugh together!

    , Michael ... I'd intended putting a 'Timely Reminder' on here yesterday - as has been my wont in years gone by - and ... ...
    I forgot!

    That's ok Arthur, it's not your fault, to be honest Arthur because we were so busy yesterday that's the first time I've forgotten to alter the clocks!

    Even though I am hoping Harlene will be here in within the next 6 weeks, the clocks going back are so much better for our skype chats.... It means I am not tired when I get up at 5am for work as Harlene will be getting up at around 9.30-10pm our time instead of 10.30-11pm and we can have a quick chat before I fall asleep on her! I might even get 6 hours sleep a night now...

    Good news is I only get up at 5am two times a week.
