Yeah, Daylight Savings Time occurred this past weekend, turning the clocks back an hour. I know you Brits don't change, so that's why you were confused.
@CitizenKane: We haven't turned our clocks back this week, but we do put them back. It was 2 weeks ago I think. In the summer Britain is on Summer Time (BST) and in the winter we're on GMT.

No we changed before you did. There was a week where all live giant bomb content was an hour earlier....what a week that was.........!

We do change, but did it a week before you. I hope that clears up your confusion!
@Pie: The closer to the speed of light you travel, the faster time goes for everything around you. If you was in a spaceship orbiting earth going the speed of light, a year to you would be hundreds of years on Earth. I think.

" Why doesn't the whole world just use GMT? It should be a universal standard. "
That might be more confusing. I mean think about it "
No it wouldn't be. People would just adjust their day fit the hours of light. So a standard working day is 9-5 (ish). In the UK and other GMT area's, that wouldn't change. In area's that used to be GMT+1 the standard working day will be 8-4 GMT. In area's that used to be GMT-1 it'll be 10-6 GMT. In area's that used to be GMT-7 it would be 5(pm)-1(am) GMT. And so on. And rather than adjusting times for daylight savings, we would just shift our hours of work forward or backwards an hour. It's a brilliant plan and anyone who says otherwise is wrong. Instead of adjusting timezones, we adjust working hours. It would take a while to get used to, but once you're used to it, it will be perfect.
