British Summer Time

[Graham]

I see the forum clocks haven't switched over to daylight saving time as yet (2:30pm BST 31st March). I wonder if this means Franck will be an hour late for the classes this week?

Some party animal you seem to be :nice: when are you coming up to Scotland to show us all how it's done?

And re. losing your brain, don't worry, apparently, you don't need a brain on the dance floor anyway (just quoting from another thread by the way, so don't flame :wink: )

Franck.

[Tiggerbabe]

Hey Lou!

You going to the ceroc champs in May then? :D

Franck will be wearing his kilt - if you need some encouragement to go :wink:

I dunno whether I'm not awake enough this Sunday morning to notice, but the forum clocks are suggesting that I should put my clock forward another hour - I thouht that was last Sunday...?

[TheTramp]

Ah. But the server this forum is on is in the States, and it's their British Summer time change today.....

As the Tramp says, it's all to do with the US of A's perception of the rest of the world :sad:

Anyway, thanks for the pointer, and I have adjusted it back to normal (yet again)...

And welcome to the Forum by the way! :nice:

At the end of the page of messages it now says
"All times are GMT. The time now is 02:13 PM."
This was not true, it was 02:13 PM BST, not 02:13 PM GMT, (i.e. 01:13 PM GMT).
When the clocks go forward GMT does not change, we switch to using BST instead.

I have now changed the wording to better reflect the general mood of the forum... :waycool:

Franck.

[TheTramp]

Yeah Franck??

So, when is Scotland ever sunny then?

Or were you just talking about the sunny disposition of the people on the forum? :D

Actually it's sunny at the moment. And this year it would fall on a work day! :tears: Oh well, there's always next summer.

every day! :cool:

...OK; so we also have rain, hail, snow, wind, blue skies and mist in the same day...

[Franck]

We have had an incredible Spring so far... and I *really* hope we get a nice sunset / sunrise for the Mid-summer party at the Beach Ballroom too!

Re. the sunny disposition of people on the Forum, I don't need to say anything about that... it is pretty obvious :waycool:

Franck.

P.S. Maybe I could update the time to include the current weather as well,

The time in wet and windy Scotland is 1.37pm :D

[TheTramp]

Hmm....

Franck.

Have you considered taking the date of the next bash at the beach ballroom back a couple of weeks, into July.

Just a thought!

Steve

[Wendy]

I can't wait for those long summer balmy nights when we put down the decking and turn our patio into an outdoor dancefloor !!! (Will have to teach some moves to the neighbours though, so they can join in !!)

Well I DO like the sound of the classes in Australia... lots of dips and drops and they have an advanced class and Aussies.... but it would be cold in Australia in the Summer... mmm.... Aberdeen has long balmy summer nights.... and Aberdonians... What do you think ???


Wxxxx

[Wendy]

or we could get a couple of those patio heaters and a roof and double glazing and just stay here... I mean we've got Curtain now. Won't be long before the others follow ... :D :D :yum: :yum: :kiss: :kiss:

Wxxxx

[TheTramp]

Ummm. Depends where you are in Australia Wendy.

Cairns, for example, is tropical, and hence doesn't get cold. And June is the dry month there, where it doesn't rain either.

Sydney does drop down to the low 70's during our summer. So, unfortunately, it's still probably warmer there than it is in Scotland anyhow :D

Oh, and incidentally, I hear that the new DJ in Aberdeen isn't too bad. Hopefully a few people will stay up there :D :D

Thanks Steve. needed that info like a kick in the head.... where is Blue34 anyway..... :wink:

Why did you need that like a kick in the head Wendy??

I mean. For some reason, I've been reading up on all things Australian recently :D

Well I probably need a kick somewhere else to get me off this forum !!!

You aren't going to go to Australia instead of Scotland are you !!!

Only on holiday Wendy :D

I'll be back!!

You are coming to Scotland = result, OK, sorted, job done, mission complete....

Wxxx

[TheTramp]

Well.

That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me. Well, apart from being better than sex.

Maybe I should shut up now.

Why does Bill only get a TBA then. I thought that he already was in Scotland :D

Maybe I should shut up now. lol ......As if !!!!!
Why does Bill only get a TBA then. I thought that he already was in Scotland :D Yeh, true - but Aberdeen is quite far away :tears: (OK not in Aussie terms - before you start quoting me distances from Melbourne to Sydney .... and onto Cairns and back in one day which you would cover if were doing a dance marathon down under with no sleep and staying on the forum at the same time while doing a double trouble with 17 women.....!!!) . That's why Curtain gets a tick cos he WAS in Aberdeen but now he's ours, all ours :devil: !!! (sound of cackling and rubbing together of hands while making sure the cauldron doesn't bubble over !!)

Wxxxx

[Wendy]

I can only imagine the delay is due to you actually working out all that stuff !!!

Wxxxxx

[TheTramp]

Nah. The delay was to me going out to get a coke.

Ummm. Should I tell you that I'll be in Aberdeen too. Or possibly Dundee. One of those two places anyhow..... But not Glasgow.

And I can't tell you the distance of Melbourne to Sydney. But I can tell you that Sydney to Cairns is 2000 miles, so it's a little difficult to do in a day, unless you were flying. And I'm not sure that double trouble with 17 women is possible. I did it with 5 last week (started with 3, and a couple more joined in), and with 5 at the party in Marco's (ditto). You can't get many more people round you within arms length. Even if you're as fat as I am :D

Steve

[Wendy]

Aderdeen or Dundee is a start :D

hug :kiss: hug :kiss: hug :kiss:

and you better get used to all that - the MAd crew are kissing MAd !!!

Wxxxx

[TheTramp]

I'll do my best to put up with it.

It's a struggle, but someone has to do it...!!

shame, but thank you for the offer, all the more generous given that you have no idea what I look like so I could be 42 stone and likely to do damage for all you know:innocent:

[TheTramp]

I'll take the chance.

It'll take a lot to do me damage. At my last massage, the girl said that I'm built like a tree trunk.

Which is an improvement on the brick sh*t house that my father used to call me.... :D

:really:

I trust you are rectifying this even as I type... This is a serious hole in your extensive research! :grin:

[TheTramp]

Not really. I have no plans to go to Melbourne this time. So it's definitely in my list of things I don't need to know :D

Steve

[Emma]

Tsk

[TheTramp]

Sorry. But I can only remember 7 things at a time. So, if I remember that, I'll only be able to remember 6 others. So, I'll just stick to remembering the important things :D

Steve

[Emma]

That seems reasonable :wink:

[DavidY]

It's that time of year again when people ask the (now traditional) question of why the forum clocks haven't been updated to use British Summer Time.

The explanations from this time last year are at the start of this thread.

I guess we have to wait till Franck next logs on before it gets corrected??

[Tiggerbabe]

YUP!!!!! He didn't give me the power to change the time :wink: :tears: :tears:

[Flash]

Well I got home from ceroc last night and had thankfully left my computer running other wise I would have had completely forgotten about the time change. I had a wee note on my screen when I got in asking me if I wanted it to update - update what????
So thanks to ceroc!!

[Pammy]

Or, if in our case, you got up and went down the Moons for a Sunday breakfast and the cut of time was 12, and you was well before at 11.45 - only to be told it was 12.45 :blush: :tears:

Yes, we're idiots - I was the first idiot, but it appears to be catching :wink:

[Lounge Lizard]

Hi Stompin scheduled to finish at two, the clock struck 1.Oclock time jumped forward I hour....it was now 2.Olcock and the evening ended :angry: :angry: :angry:
So we stopped dancing at 1.00 not very good, apparantly town hall management was to blame

[Sheepman]

I trust Phil won't book Stompin' on a clocks changing night again, except maybe in September?

Some of us needed more, so headed for the Market Diner, but because it was so early (2:30 am), the queue was far too long to contemplate. Oh for the old days of the bikers caff on the prom, food and dancing till dawn. (Just in case anyone thinks I'm talking of the sixties, I'm not that old, I'm talking of the late '90's.

Greg Those were the days when the leather clad bikers were forced to leave cos the soft soled dancers had arrived - not sure if they [the bikers] were wimps of scared of being associated with 'our sort':rofl:

[DavidY]

Franck,

Just like last year (http://www.cerocscotland.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&postid=15614#post15614) , the forum's server has gone forward an extra hour at the weekend. Must be those Americans again I guess.

Can you fix it please?

David :cheers:

[Lory]

:tears: The dark nights are here again! :tears:

But in our little cyber world of the forum, it's still the old time! :wink: :D :clap:

[philsmove]

I got to page two of this thread before realising it started in summer 2003

Ladies; ladies please, please, take no heed of this man who invites insurrection against a fellow fellow who tends his machines with all the slavish devotion of a lovesick suitor. Not from him the aimless kicks and blows of the frustrated alpha male but, rather, a firm yet gentle laying on of hands to ease the pain of all those bruised and broken parts so that they mesh once again in the perfect harmony of form and substance fully deserving the admiring appelation as to gender.

I'm so glad it was a 'sexy chick' (not a phrase that would ever, ever, pass my lips) who resorted to violence against the poor machine. Perhaps ladies see machines as being masculine ?? This one gave every appearance of being just that !!

A friend had pick up some unwanted porn, that was automatically printing itself
So I empted the deleted emails in outlook express, which seemed to be the source of the problem

He then told me he kept ALL his WANTED e mails in the delete Folder!!!! :what:

Any one know how to undelete a deleted email

He is not a happy bunny

There are a number of Recovery utilities/applications aimed at this type of problem such as Iolo Technologie's "Search & Recover 2".
http://www.iolo.com/sr/2/
I do not have personal experience of using this ( I know of Iolo because of their "System Mechanic" utility) so unless it is urgent, I would wait for a more 'experienced' answer.
If there happens to be no more forthcoming advice (hard to belive on this forum :worthy: ) and you have to make a decision, please go for a utility that you have to pay for - something that is free might just cause a whole lot of new problems.

Also

kept ALL his WANTED e mails in the delete Folder
Can REALLY understand why you needed to make use of Baldrick's (excellent :clap: ) link.
