I “speak” to my sister who lives in Abbottsford BC every Sunday afternoon on messenger

I wait for her to open the conversation and she always gets a bit confused every time the clocks change on what the time it is here in the uk

We have found it the best way though for her to initiate the contact then it doesn’t matter about time

And please remember ......................

if you need to contact anyone in either the US or Canada, our clocks do not go back until NEXT weekend, Sunday November 2.


and, if we're lucky, British Columbia will NOT be changing the clocks at all, we'll stay on DST all year round. Our Premier was hoping to come to an agreement with Washington State, Oregon and California, but they have to get such a change passed by Congress in Washngnton DC, and it it doesn't look like that's going to work.

Our Premier can do it on his own, he doesn't have to consult with Ottawa.
