The clocks went forward here last Saturday night. Did the clocks also go forward to British Summer Time?
By my reckoning, we should be 30 minutes into the Norwich game. ;D

Thanks Pete. I wondered why I wasn't get the match commentary. I was an hour ahead of myself or is it behind myself?
Evening matches have been kicking off at 2:45. I guess I was early. Time to go and get a cup of Bovril. ;D

dallas...
didn't you guys change the weekend you changed the clocks last year (IE - bring it forward) so it saved energy?
I seem to remember my mate in cincy telling me that 100,000's of barrels of oil being saved

homerjrugeley, I think you may be right. As for "you guys," it was nowt to do with me. I am British. I just do as I am told. What do you do or who do you work for that takes you to the States so often? You seem to be here more than you are in the UK.

Dallas I work for a software company. We have an office in Cincinnati that is very, very busy... Our busy is not as busy. So I get to come over lots! 4 times in the last 4 months. Was meant to be over again next friday for 2 weeks but it's been cancelled as i've got to go to the czech republic for 3 days. looks like i'll be over in may for 4 weeks though... and the company have said that they'll pay for my misses to come over for a few days too! PS - I've just tried to find some details on the energy saving... seems that demand actually went up

homerjrugeley,
Sounds like a good company to work for. Pity the US office isn't located somewhere a little warmer. I guess you can't have everything.

yep. pretty good company. get to see the world on expenses... Chestefield MO and Wooster OH are not the best places I've managed to get to!
the law changed in the US last year. putting "US daily savings" in google shows the hysteria this created last year amongst the computer geeks.

Simon,
Long time no speak. I'll send you an e-mail when the match is over and bring you up to date.
Dallas.
