Free For All Friday No. 677 by Steve

This weekend here in Europe we are putting our clocks back an hour at the end of 'Daylight Saving Time/British Summer Time/etc' USA is next weekend.

There is the possibility that here in Europe some countries will fix their clocks all year around which convention they will follow hasn't yet been decided, but a directive has been passed that allows individual member states to decide that time standard they will adhere to, but with COVID taking up so much government time, the decision has naturally been delayed.... by more than hour!

How will you use your extra hour on Sunday? 

Of course it is Friday so feel free to discuss anything organiser related. 

Have a good weekend.

  1. As it’s the last day of October, I might just use it to review the past month, cull organiser pages no longer needed and plan/ set goals for November. Or I might just enjoy an extra hour in bed.

    1. Probably a sensible move - I find the quality of Filofax pens very poor.

  3. Our trees are in full "Fall Color Mode" this weekend in Southern Tennessee, so I will be hiking! (And FWIW, I am fully in favor of stopping this whole clocks forward clocks back thing. I'd rather we stayed on daylight savings time, but I understand standard time is closer to our biological clocks. Either way, I don't care. Just Stop the Change.)
