Clock changing confusion

[humblepie]

Help, I’m confusing myself. If I normally get to my horse at 7 am. What time do I need to set the alarm for tomorrow under the British summertime to still get there at 7 am rather than 7 am real summer time. Seems a very simple question but I’m confusing myself big time.

If your clock is fed of mains it should change automatically so leave the time the same.

if you have an iphone just set at normal time and the time will change for you in the night,

Thanks. Think phone does update.

If you mean that you want to get to your horse at his normal time you will need to set your alarm an hour earlier.

If you normally leave home at say 6.30am, tomorrow that ‘new’ time will be called 5.30am…

Please don't! If you change your clock, leave the alarm as is. If your clock changes itself, you don't need to do anything.

I would need to change my bedside alarm clock. I don’t use my phone as an alarm and OP hasn’t stated what she uses.

Yes, the clock but not the alarm. If clock is changed alarm will go off at the right time.

Whatever I did worked. Got up at 7am so 6 am in old money. Last year I did a showing class at 8am the day the clocks changed. That was confusing and left yard in pitch dark

Isn't the OP asking about how to be up there 24 hours after she was last up there in the morning?

So if she was there at 9am Saturday, and wanted to go up 24 hours later, she would be going up at 10am BST on the Sunday.


In fairness to the OP, there's a lot of confusion already on this thread - it's not just you!
