Daylight Savings Time?

Post by Niner » Mon Mar 22, 2004 1:57 am

This is only on topic because of the Sunday Chat. But do the British have the American equivalent to daylight savings time? When does it start for the British, if there is such a thing in your country?

BST

Back in April of 1986, I flew into London's Gatwick airport. Unfortunately, it was on the same day that daylight savings time started. No two clocks in the terminal were on the same time zone. Even the pilot upon landing stated that he had no idea of what local time it was because everybody was argueing about when the time switch occurred. Made for a real hectic day, to say the least. My buddy in Wales refers to BST as "bulls*** time", by the way. Forgot what he calls daylight savings time.
