People in the UK and EU countries will be affected by a fourth dimensional disturbance that will remove nearly 4000 seconds from your timeline, due to hit landfall at 02:60/03:00 Sunday morning.
This is part of the similar wave of distortion that crossed the USA a few weeks ago, but while those in the Europe are likely to have their hour returned in the autumn, those in the USA may have permanently lost that hour.
If you are unduly inconvenienced by this, please find a relevant authority to complain to, and let us know if it works.
Somehow, I forgot that Vienna gives the start time in your local time zone, not the time in Vienna. So this isn’t on at 13:00 Vienna time (aka now), but 6 hours from now. This means I got up at 7 am on my day off for nothing, and since it’s happening at 1 pm, I can’t actually watch it. Sigh. Someone be sure to tell me if what was apparently good lighting in the house transfers to video.
Spain is on GMT+1?? huh???? but ye are west of england?? :0 /norway/ is on gmt+1, how did this happen!
Yeah we should be roughly on UK time according to our longitude but here we are lol. Quite fun to think we have the same time as Norway, or Serbia for example!
How did this happen? Short answer is Franco wanted to be on the same time as the Axis powers. WW2 ended, our dictator died 40 years ago, but for some reason we're still stuck on the wrong time zone. Maybe because of our ancestral beef with the bloody English? Lol
So this is our life these days:
people keep telling me ‘happy birthday’ from the future
and by that I mean that some people are in time zones where it’s already the 10th and I’m in one where it’s still the 9th
and it’s very funny, really
Good morning people on the opposite side of the world
you cant april fools me today
because it was yesterday.
