    I think most of us expect a lot of comeback while going about our normal posting business.....

    Cheers for alerting us. It might have passed me by otherwise.

    You should demand your CUK subscription back.

    Your best bet would be to go to settings, then General Settings, then scroll down to Date and Time Options and set your DST Options to Automatically detect DST settings.

    If it is set to Automatic and the time is still showing incorrectly, then the issue is not with ContractorUK or the forum software.

    Post #3 is me coming to the realisation and correcting the error but thanks for your assistance

    Ps. The setting was on corrections always on - so there is a problem with that setting.... (moot now but hey ho - not like you'll do a proper job and actually fix it eh?)

    You'll have to forgive Mr. Bean. Not the sharpest tool in the box and he's not shy to prove it.

    Yep, checked my settings - but I also have a screw loose

    So I guess the answer is no
