Great news. Last year even Turkish Airlines had no idea what time it was. We Had so many flight time changes!!!

What a shame. It was far better with the slightly lighter evenings, and the mornings were still lighter than th UK at a similar time.

Agree with you Pete. Not looking forward to the longer evenings!

I too loved the light evenings. I guess I'll have to think about getting up earlier instead! Not too much chance of that actually happening though!

Is this true? I normally get a govt. official knock on my door to inform me of any important changes. It hasn't happened this time so I'm sticking to the old system.

source is the cyprus mail? haven't heard or read anything to confirm the article is true.
i actually think changing clocks is unnecessary in this day and age and i thought it was great that they adopted the no time change system but hey ho if they do decide to revert back to the system then one of those things i guess.

Last week the government said it was vital that we had the same time as Turkey so what happened?

Think I'll wait untill its confirmed from this side!

Hope we keep the lighter evenings.

so do I. I am dreading the long winter evenings when I am stuck at home and I make no apology for "attacking" four by fours again". If you dont like me complaining - You try being imprisoned in your home because you cant afford (nor have room for if it comes to that) a vehicle that can compete with the blinding and high level of the type of traffic. which races when it is not gridlocked through the narrow roads of my village, and walking or using the scooter even at dusk will amount to a paritcularly unpleasant form of suicide, At least last year I had a blessed extra hour.I

I'm pleased the clocks are going back, I felt oddly isolated from the world when we had a three hour time difference. I also quite enjoy the winter evenings after a long hot summer, it's all fine with me.

At least we get 9.45 kick off with the evening kick off and not 10.45 pm

I think this is actually the most important plus! And who wants to watch Pointless at a quarter past eight?

I would not want to watch either at any time, but what is wrong with "Listen Again" ? You can watch anything at any time you want within a reasonable period

Can't think of anything more Pointless than watching Pointless!!

Its better for the kids going to school and those us that have dogs to walk before going to work that we put them back, so its a yay from me

Now we ave changed our clocks but Turkey hasnt the time on my Digiturk box is wrong. Confused? I will be!

Same here!
Digiturk is one hour ahead of Cyprus time.
Says that the Formula One Grand Prix will be on air at 9 p.m but that is 8 p.m. here.
Will need to be careful when deciding to switch on for the football.
