We have just put the clocks back and I am still waking up rather early. My internal clock takes a week or two to settle down and adjust to the new times. Why on earth do we have to do it? Couldn't we settle for one or the other and stop all this chopping and changing? Do other countries change their time twice a year? Surely we ought to be on Greenwhich Mean Time and stay there. There are numerous conflicting opinions as to the benefits/disadvantages of different timings and no-one seems able to agree on which times are best. Apparently it was in 1916 that the Daylight Saving Bill was introduced and we have been following this silly system ever since. We must have managed before this and I'm sure we could manage again!
