Yep , back and an extra hour in bed .

So in theory if you work nights you start at 10 pm and finish at 6am , which will be a 9 hour shift as it would have been 7 am if the clocks hadn’t gone back .

I was on earlies one time and a guy who works in the office turned up two hours early for work. He'd put his clock forward by mistake. His face was a picture.

The clocks go back in the autumn (fall in American English) not forward.

Easy to remember by using the term Spring forward, fall back.

I love the clock change

Signals the start of an invigorating wild and beautiful period , where it can be pleasantly frigid , hopefully with plenty of ice and snow , heralds lovely ladies dressed in beautiful clothes with glowing cheeks , foxy hat's and scarves , and my log burner glowing ,

Oh and an extra hour x

Glad I'm not on nights this time .

Was on last time clocks went back .Staff were all in bad moods so we ended up having extra breaktime as didn't get paid extra hour .Then had job of changing all the clocks .But was great as some staff forgot and came in early in the morning so we went home bit earlier than normal . Everyone should get paid that extra hour .When employees say it all works out over the year it doesn't as it's always different staff when clocks go back .

It was only brought in a couple of centuries ago? to aid the farmers in the amount of time they could harvest their crops of an evening. Why the hell didn't they just get up an hour earlier and save everybody in the UK the hassle that we now have to go through.

I'm off to start an anti agricultural thread, bloody farmers, taking over our countryside and all, bastards, some cows invaded my garden when I lived out in the sticks. GET ORRRFFF MOI LLAAANNNDD I told the Bovine intruders, but they just kept on munching my apples....

It was done during the war to enable crops to be harvested longer. Without fear of being bombed, that just made it difficult to do lol!! (Geeky fact)

When I worked nights in a supermarket, we would always go by the store clock. They would then change it when we finished and the day staff were on the new time.

Would always work the right amount of hours, sleep then be on the new time like everyone else
