Funny...the last time we were on holiday the clocks went back, going tomorrow and the clocks go forward.
Just asked hubby to do ours in the morning before we go as daughter will be an hour late for everything for the next week  ;D

Have to say I prefer this change...,spring and summer is coming  :)

I'm afraid I much prefer getting an extra hour in the winter!

It's difficult to say which I prefer.
I really like spring and the knowledge that summer is not far away.
But, the extra hour in bed in winter has a lot going for it too.

I'm glad spring is here and summer hopefully on the way.Was out in the garden this afternoon cutting the hydrangeas back, could feel warmth in the sun and our friendly robin was on the fence singing away as I worked. Really lifted the spirits after the many grey days we have had recently. Hope you have a good time away HB

You wouldn't have those as your favourite months if you lived up here CLKD. There was snow on the hills around us yesterday and today.
It's still got a big touch of winter at the moment.   ::)

That is where snow should be - MANY++ years ago we went to the Pyrenees - to see snow 'up there' like a post card was just as it should be  ;D - we sat in the burning sun drinking ……….

Where do you live Honeybun?

I'm in Stockport and it's been piddling it down most of the day. Daughter's football was cancelled, even the dog wasn't keen on going out. Let's hope that's because it's the last day of winter and tomorrow will see a whole new season. Or perhaps it's because I'm in Stockport.....

OK - BST has started.
The weather is absolutely vile.
Very strong winds, p---ing down with rain, snow on the mountains opposite.
Doesn't feel like summer at all.

And another thing, lambing has started in the field next to us. It's heartbreaking seeing the tiny lambs being subjected to this horrid weather.

Our lambs are here  :-* - or not due until May  ;) - Farmers don't seem to help themselves do they  ::)

I'm in the West Coast of Scotland GG.

It's actually not bad at the moment in the Trossachs. It was pouring earlier but now it's bright and dry.
Well as hubby said if we were looking for sunshine we should have gone to Spain  :P
