You could be right......however as Gus said...this could be the last time....that could confuse those who may travel between France, Spain and Portugal in future years...
Dir.Gov will need to develop a calculator..

I heard that Portugal stays on the same time as us too.

 

[Taran_Las]

It really depends on the exchange rate at the time. Higher or lower could mean less than or more than an hour.

The one I remember from the Navy There is some red port left in the can. Tells you the shape of the buoy too

During British Summer Time (BST), civil time in the United Kingdom is advanced one hour forward of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) (in effect, changing the time zone from UTC+00:00 to UTC+01:00), so that mornings have one hour less daylight, and evenings one hour more.[1][2]

BST begins at 01:00 GMT on the last Sunday of March and ends at 01:00 GMT (02:00 BST) on the last Sunday of October. The starting and finishing times of daylight saving were aligned across the European Union on 22 October 1995, and the UK retained this alignment after it left the EU[3] – for instance Central European Summer Time begins and ends on the same Sundays at exactly the same time (that is, 02:00 Central European Time, which is 01:00 GMT). Between 1972 and 1995, the BST period was defined as "beginning at two o'clock, Greenwich mean time, in the morning of the day after the third Saturday in March or, if that day is Easter Day, the day after the second Saturday in March, and ending at two o'clock, Greenwich mean time, in the morning of the day after the fourth Saturday in October."[4][5]

The following table lists recent-past and near-future start and end dates of British Summer Time:[6]

Year	Start	End
2018	25 March	28 October
2019	31 March	27 October
2020	29 March	25 October
2021	28 March	31 October
2022	27 March	30 October
2023	26 March	29 October
2024	31 March	27 October

European clocks are now on:STANDARD TIME

• Standard Time began: October 25, 2020 01:00 GMT. Clocks went back one hour.
• Standard Time ends: March 28, 2021 01:00 GMT. Clocks go forward one hour.

UK and Europe Clock Change Rules

Daylight Saving 2021

British Summer Time Rule​

In the UK, the Daylight Saving (DST) period is is known as British Summer Time or BST for short.
When BST starts, the UK moves its clocks forward from GMT by one hour, so BST= GMT+1.
The UK is the short name for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Great Britain consists of England, Wales and Scotland.
Since 1996 all clocks in the European Union have changed on same dates and at the same time, 1:00 am GMT. UK left the EU on 31 January 2020 and is in a transition period till the end of 2020. There have been no announcements so far about post-EU Daylight Saving Time (DST) rules.

That looks like Avebury not Stone Henge but the joke is good. Some years back they were filming a drama at Avebury but they didn’t like the position of some of the stones, so they made full size hollow replicas that they could move around the site.

Forward 1 hour and I think it is staying there from now on?
