Clocks go forward early tomorrow morning. One brighter piece of news in the gloom. My spirits always rise that little bit higher during BST.
Next year. And I've been waiting for GB to ditch GMT for BST for pretty much all my life. Of course it means nothing to most people, but Brexit just becomes even more personal when I think of side issues like this.
I looked up the details of the EU's decision to ditch the time changing. Member nations get to decide whether to stay on winter time or summer time. Thinking about it, no doubt GB would have chosen to stay GMT. Not sure, but we might still be involved, depending on what happens during our transitional period: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2...votes-to-scrap-daylight-saving-time-from-2021
The only way to pull off a lockdown afternoon 'quickie' with their 8-year old son in the apartment was to send him out on the balcony with a Mars Bar and tell him to report on all the street activities. He began his commentary as his parents put their plan into operation: 'There's a car being towed from the car park,' he shouted. 'An ambulance just drove by!' 'Looks like the Andersons have company,' he called out. 'Matt's out on his bike and his mum is telling him off' 'Looks as if the Sanders are going into full isolation!' 'Jason has had his skate board taken off him After a few moments he announced, 'The Coopers are having sex!!' Startled, his mum and dad shot up in bed! Dad cautiously called out, 'How do you know they're having sex?' 'Jimmy Cooper is standing on his balcony with a Mars Bar'.
