Nick - Thanks for the nod.

Without wishing to derail the thread, I do wonder if there is case for the reintroduction of BDST as it really doesn't matter to all but a few in mid-summer whether it's nice and bright at 5.00 or 6.00 AM but the additional hour of light in the evening would probably benefit businesses.

Steve, you have chanced upon one of the most persisent pet causes in Great Britain. One Telegraph article will illustrate the point -
"The clocks spring forward: here's why we should never change them back"

Paul - Whichever way one jumps on this, it's pretty clear you can't please all the people all the time.
