No sense in arriving an hour early for trains that are only going to leave late in any case.

** Europe is not on summer time yet.

I'll ask someone to take care of that for me.

I'm looking forward to more daylight.

It's new since the last time change. Got no oven for a couple of months yet - so don't have to worry about that one.

and which one will be off by 2 hours.

Somehow someone moved one during a spring forward, and one during a fall back, so both have been off by 1 hour in opposite directions since November (or whenever they last messed with time)

Unless someone just moves all clocks without checking the time.

I think it's the classroom that will be correct, and the darkroom that will be 2 hours off.

It's just a meeting, and I don't really have to go, but they count on me to bring cookies.

But as long as it's not snowing again, I can make it, it's not that far. Two weeks ago the roads were bad, it was snowing really hard and nothing was plowed, so I didn't dare go over 20. I'm not a fan of winter here in the Adirondacks.
