To hate it when the clocks go forward!

Not helped by the fact that I stupidly arranged an activity this morning at 11 a bit of a drive away, so we’re all on a schedule.

I’m going to feel out of sorts until October.

I’m a natural night owl and the sense that we’re on the wrong time never really leaves me.

I’d so love if we had a period of time when the clocks go back an extra hour, where we’re an hour behind GMT rather than either on it or ahead of it.

I don’t really care if I am BU tbh!

I feel tired for at least a week & am the same when the clocks go back. It’s nice to have lighter evenings though.

Fortunately, my cat can't read the time so she accepts that her food arrives as normal and doesn't question. I sort of operate the same principle.

I'm also a night owl but the time on the clock won't change that either. Nothing has actually changed, only the way we measure time.

I just wish they wouldn’t change at all - don’t mind where they leave them just leave them alone

I "slept in". It gets harder every year. Tomorrow is going to be a killer, especially at the weather here is so grey.

Opposite for me - I love it!

I couldn’t understand why I felt so tired when I woke up at 8am. If I’d remembered it was really 7am I would have gone back to sleep

Not unreasonable to dislike the clocks going forward, but totally unreasonable to think it will affect you for six months.

Just go to bed earlier tonight and crack on as normal tomorrow.

I've woken up this morning feeling really draggy.....the cats are convinced they are owed two breakfasts due to the time changing!!
