Default UK clock change

The government is considering putting the clocks forward an hour, for a three year trial period. This would mean darker mornings.

BBC News - UK clocks change trial being considered

What do you think? A good idea, or a waste of time?

You guys certainly change times a lot. First you were two hours behind us, then one hour.... lol how do you keep track of it all?

Its confusing enough as it is... At least the clock in my car is correct for 6 months of the year

Leave our clocks alone!

I think we may be losing an hour in bed but with extra daylight in the evenings and a long summer ahead, there’s plenty to look forward to after the clocks go forward.
