      Who won for flip's sake?

      Must be wonderful to be on Berlin time in Portugal though.

        Personally I work either CET but as I work in computers I use UTC:

        UTC replaced GMT as the basis for the main reference time scale or civil time in various regions on January 1, 1972

          WHS. It would seem rather ridiculous to not have Greenwich meantime in Greenwhich.

          If we want more light, and want to be more in sync with the European working day, why are we tampering with time? Why not just all get up an hour earlier?

            Rules is rules, and we all know where we'd be without rules, France!!!
            France was on GMT until they let the Germans govern them in WWII
