Happy Mother Day
We wish all Mums a
Happy Mothers Day
The clocks go forward on Mother’s Day this year – 31 March – meaning we’ll all lose an hour in bed. It’s probably not the best gift for sleep-deprived parents across the country but the clocks changing also signals the beginning of longer days and, fingers crossed, warmer weather.
In the UK we observe Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) in the winter months, and advance an hour during British Summer Time (BST). From time to time Parliament has debated the idea of adopting BST throughout the year, but a permanent change is yet to happen.
The EU is to consider keeping a permanent time zone by 2021.
