I just cycled around Caldecotte lake. I left at 4pm, and by my watch it 
took about 45 minutes. But here's the weird thing: when I got back, I 
collapsed into my chair, glanced at my computer, and noticed... IT'S 
STILL 4PM! O_O

I wasn't exactly approaching relativistic velocities as I went around 
that lake, you know... Man!

It must have something to do with the reason my sister in law in England  
was posting on facebook for everyone to set their clocks.

Either that or she's throwing a party and doesn't want anyone to be
late. ;-)

Weirder thing, my computer clock changed back an hour a few weeks ago by 
itself. I was sat there thinking I still had an hour until my gf got 
home from work, then she walked in :-O
