Clock change. - TalkCeltic

hubert · 09-03-2007, 04:26 AM

Daylight savings starts this Sunday 2 am the 11th March in the States, so those over here will need to be aware of the time difference for the Rangers game.
Eg my time it starts at 4:30 am the game that is, however I will be getting up at 4 am having moved the clock but it will be 3 am had I not moved the clock forward.
Does that make sense?

The game is 12:30 GMT and Im 5 hours behind as of now meaning 7:30. But spring forward means 7:30 would be 6:30? i think

the match is at 12 .30 but as u are in america ,and the moon rises 2 hours early in the west of where u live, that means in phillidelpha u will set ure clock 1 hour ahead as to to confilct with the sun on the northen side of australia as this causes conflict between the atmosphere and the climate of where u live
any way,
as when u wake up in the morning of the match you will see if u look out ure window that the stars in the sky would have moved 3 miles east of there previous position, this means you have woken up from your sleep and after all this the match still starts at 12 30,,

i hope this had clarified the situation and made things easier for u

**Guy Fawkes** · 10-03-2007, 10:42 PM

setanta is telling me the game is at 8:30

now I am lost even more

I am still befuddle, however how does this sound, when I moved my clock forward 1 hour I am then only 7 hours different from GMT, therefor although I am losing 1 hour of sleep as it were so to speak, only to coin a phrase, then its going to be 5:30 am my time NOT 3:30 am as I first thought.

Having moved the clock forward I am losing an hour yet I get that hour right back as I will see the game an hour later because of only a 7 hour difference, either way I really wont be aware of that at the time, because I will be sleeping.

Since this game is a biggy, maybe it would be a good idea to stay up awe night.

PS Yes its kind of neat losing an hours sleep yet getting an hour extra for the game.
Back east in the States it will be 8:30am.
