I have to admit, it doesn't bother me anymore. Most of the clocks I have are set automatically now. Apart from two.

Actually saying that reminds me of an column I read years back. It was in the Evening Standard, and written by Nigella Lawson (before she was a TV chef).

She was talking about the clocks going back and forth, and how in the past she only used to have a couple of clocks to reset. Now all of a sudden virtually every electrical device has a clock, so where as she had two to worry about, all of a sudden, there's those clocks, the cooker, the video, the microwave, the HiFi and various other devices to worry about.
