    I'm sure another 2 or 3 weeks wouldn't have made much difference to the scottish farmers.</p>

    already pee'd off about having to come home in the dark. </p>

    yep, early. if they delayed doing it..........

    another 3 weeks and then did the same 3 weeks earlier in february, it would take 6 weeks off the winter nights without making much difference to anyone who wants lighter mornings.
