    Don't forget that for half of you it means the clock in your car will now be wrong by an hour for the next 6 months so plan your journeys accordingly.

    For the other half of you congratulations your car clock is now correct for 6 months

    Last 6 months my car has been correct but the radio an hour out, now we have some form of consistency going on (for 6 months anyway).

    Car clocks are easy. Cookers are the pain.

    I had no idea the clocks had done anything until I just read this. Reality and I are only vaguely acquainted.

    We never bother with the cooker clock, because it's only on while we're cooking. The rest of the time the cooker is turned off at the wall switch. I hate things being left on standby.

    It reminds me of Kryten on Red Dwarf, asking..
    "If there's no silicone heaven, then where do all the calculators go ?."
    Maybe that's where the clocks all keep going back to, for a few beers. :D

    The only clock I've got which doesn't automatically update every year is currently showing 02:48 - exactly five hours ahead. I've got no idea why, or how to change it. Pretty sure it was correct when it was installed though!
