Clocks forward an hour – a reminder


A reminder that the clocks in Europe, at least, went forward an hour early this morning. The photo is of the clock of the Horniman Museum in Forest Hill, Suth London, which incidentally is still on the old time. Pic was taken from about 350 yards away with Canon's PowerShot 210 IS, which has a remarkable zoom for a small, slim camera.

Jim,
You'll be pleased to hear that the polling station at Epeigne was open at 8.00 am on the dot this morning for voting in the second round of the Cantonal elections. Seems somne of the voters may have forgotten about the change in hour as we had only 6 voters in the first hour. Things had picked up when I knocked off at 10.30 though and we're on target to beat last Sunday's 56.3% turnout.

Mark. Thanks. Very impressive. Where Epeigné leads La France invariably follows!
