So 9am will be 10am yeah? It always puzzles me

No reason why not.

An easy way to remember is .... Spring forward (add an hour in the springtime)
and Fall back (lose an hour in the Fall - fall being from the old english "Fall of the leaf", before the word Autumn came into being).

Sorry for barging in.

Sorry I couldn't get there, my car went pop and my landy is waiting for a new uv joint. To be honest, I think I would of turned up an hour late as well......
Hope you had a good time......

Thanks to Andy and Bam for a great day out - been slurpin' birch sap and slicin' horse hoof fungus since I got home, after a careful inventory of my syrup puddin's and lemon powder!

I tried to get up there, but i was a bit late leaving, due to the clocks, i left about 9.50 and got behind lots of slow traffic, and got about half way there and thought you all would have left the car park by the time i got there, so i turned around and went home, sorry, would have been good to meet some of you...next time...

echo that mate. Was good to see you both. Was a lovely afternoon.

Can't believe that we found those horse hoof fungus' this far south. What a find!

Thanks for a good day out.

I had some kind of stomach nasty. Well up for future meets. What about another neck of the woods? Alice Holt or Hursley Common?

 

[palmnut]

I too am gutted I couldn't come - we had to take the kids to Grandad's house that day. A future meet in Alice Holt would be superb for me as I can see it from my kitchen window!

Getting really excited now - just over a month until my Woodsmoke Woodlander course

 

[Salt Back Pete]

I have done that one. Is it in the Lake District? I wonder if it is at the same location.

 

[palmnut]

Yep - up in the Lakes. Meet at the Sawray Inn and then transfer to 'a private estate situated between Lake Windermere and Esthwaite Water'. Can't wait - bet it pi**es down all week mind - I'd better read up on the damp tinder tricks again!

 

[Salt Back Pete]

If it is the same place it is amongst lots of Norwegian Spruce. The sap daubed on firesticks does well.

 

[Ratel10mm]

Guys, if I may come on the next walkabout I'd be up for it.
I promise not to ask more than 59 dumb questions!

 

[palmnut]

Mrs Palmnut now tells me that I was 'silly' to miss the meet and that she could have taken the girls to Grandad's on her own. Hmmm, if ony I had that time machine so I could find out what she'd have really said on the day

Ready for the next date now please
