The clocks went back an hour over the weekend. While we got to enjoy an extra hour in bed, it does mean that the sun sets an hour earlier too. 🌞

The 2025 20-25 Challenge.

This year let’s get better at something by finding a little practice time most days, in my case drawing. - Do your activity for at least 25 minutes, at least 25 days per month.
- Use the hashtag #20252025Challenge on social media etc to track your progress
- Also use the hashtag to cheer on others.

That’s about it!

Have fun with your activities, whatever they may be!

Drawing, programming, dancing, cooking, make up, reading, languages, gardening, mastering high fives, sewing, astrophysics, vcr clock setting ...

Remember many years ago an experiment whereby the clocks were not put back in the autumn and were left on British Summertime (BST).
It resulted in the evenings being lighter and the mornings darker.
A couple of the disadvantages that often featured in the news reports at the time were children having to travel to school in the dark and that for people in Scotland, it didn't get light until mid-morning.
Apart from that, I can't recall whether any other conclusions were reached when the experiment ended and we reverted to ending daylight-saving the following autumn.
As a footnote, imagine living in the town of Longyearbyen in the arctic archipelago of Svalbard.
A few weeks ago, this 'land of the midnight sun' was experiencing 24-hour daylight.
Today however, the sun will rise just after 11.30am, then set again just ten minutes later.
After that brief appearance, the sun will stay below the horizon until mid February next year!

UK Clock Change Date and Impact Explained

The clocks in the UK will go back by one hour at 02:00 BST on Sunday 26 October, marking the end of British Summer Time and a return to Greenwich Mean Time.
