Every year it's the same.Every year there's an argument whether the clocks should go back an hour at the end of summer, leaving us plunged into darkness by five in the evening.
The reasoning we are given - year in, year out - is to give Scottish farmers and children going to school an extra hour of daylight in the morning, when the sun comes up at about lunchtime.
Others argue that the early evenings cost the country millions in lost production and increased traffic accidents.
Well, I've got the solution to that. Leave the clocks alone, and give every man woman and child north of the border a free set of night vision goggles, which they must wear at all times.
This plan will pay for itself in a matter of months, and will also enable the easier identification of anybody who may be of the Scotch persuasion, fo eg: They are the ones wearing night vision goggles.
We are - of course - keeping an eye on the situation after the government's recent annoucement that they are to dump GMT/BST in favour of a proposed move to British Hammertime.
I am not mad.

I reckon we should compromise and use European Summertime (CET+1) for half the year, because European Summer evenings are better, cafe culture and all that, then switch to GMT in the winter, because that we we get an extra two hours in bed instead of the current one hour. Win-win!
Speaking as someone of "the Scottish* Persuasion" - if you could do night vision goggles with designer frames, I'll give it a go.

". . . which they must where at all times . . ."???

@ Debster WTF (o eg)?
Here in civilisation, we have no daylight saving. Who would want to be playing tennis when it's 40 degrees at 4pm??
