Well - all the clocks are now done - except for one
The one on the bedroom was its normall annoying self on clock-change-day
looked at it at 6:20 - checked my phone which said 7:20
and woke me up a bit more
went to the loo and came back and the clock had decided to update and now said 7:23
I have no idea how that damn thing works!
One year - before I retired - I left it alone and it changed on the Tuesday!!!!!
OK - it has been better since - but again I have no idea why. It gets the time from the DAB radio - but reception on that has always been fine. If I switch teh raido on the it works OK - but who wants to leave the radio on all night!
anyway - did the kitchen clock first go
Oh - damn - better check the car - new car so I have no idea how to do it

Sending sympathy
make sure you try to take some stuff to keep your ion type levels up while your tummy is refusing food
I know you know this - but when you are ill sometimes your brain shuts off - so it is worth reminding people
any - how you feel better soon - you have a parish to run!!!!

It has been a gorgeous morning, sunny with just a slight breeze. Up to 11° by the time I got back. Did a 3 hour ride almost all surrounded by fresh green and birdsong, lots of lambs, even saw my first butterfly of the year. I couldn’t identify it, I just glimpsed it in silhouette as we crossed paths. By chance, the last few miles were in the company of my LBS owner, I was able to show him a hillside lane that he never knew was there.

I have grown bored with the driverless cars thread. 😀
