And make constant adjustments during the rest of the year as some of those pesky stone circles will run slow grin

I get cross when people talk about getting an extra hour’s sleep. Being a raving insomniac, I always wake at about 4a.m. Now that will be 3a.m. It’s just an extra hour of being awake. Hate these time changes, so unnecessary.

Whilst we get an extra hours sleep on Sunday, spare a thought for the National Trust Volunteers who work tirelessly through the night to move the stones back 1 hour at various stone circles around the country side. This is done twice a year to make sure the stones align correctly with the sun.
