The clocks go back tonight
Here in the UK in just over an hours time, 2am, the clocks go back one hour to 1am. Back to being darker earlier than it already is. I'm not a fan of less daylight.
The only good thing about putting the clocks back an hour is that it will be lighter in the morning for a short period of time.
Does your country put the clocks back this weekend or maybe in next week or the one after?

Back in the 80s we had daylight saving time but I remember experiencing it only twice and was never done again in this country.

@kevin1877uk I think it works for whatever purpose it has over there that's why they don't stop doing that. But here, it simply doesn't work. It wasn't efficient.

@kevin1877uk We went to Milan (Italy) to see my mother today. Coming back the sunset on the Alps was beautiful, not red but pure gold this evening.

I totally agree, Barry, it does seem pointless in doing it.

We went back one hour here in Italy too. That makes it lighter in the mornings but also colder too. Guess we can't have everything 
I don't see well in the dark (one of the reasonms I gave up driving three years ago) so unless I am with a friend I will be indoors for the next few months after 5 p.m.. Five more months and we put them forward again

@kevin1877uk Thank you but not to worry. I am used to it now and just make more use of the daylight hours

@kevin1877uk Well, it will be happening here next weekend for us. I guess I just have to live with it.
