Clocks back tonight

Mucking about with the clocks twice a year makes me furious and takes a fortnight to get used to every time.
There are still 24 hours in each day. It still gets dark earlier or later as the year progresses. Most people can get up an hour earlier or later if they need or want to, so no, you don't get an extra hour in bed unless you're going to work on Sunday morning and have to set your alarm. If not, you can lie in bed as long as the kids or cats let you.
I've never needed an alarm, I wake up early and tomorrow that will be about 5 o'clock, which is too damned early.

Will I last the day out - I'm already dropping off

What a cliff-hanger pompa.
Did you, in fact, last the day out after the incredible upheaval of the clock-change?
