We don’t move clocks here :lol:
Seriously, Barbados tried that Daylight Saving Time thing back in the 80’s and it didn’t quite catch on. Compared to areas further away from the Equator, our daylight hours don’t vary that much anyway.

I'll enjoy the extra hour of sleep, but I'm gonna miss that extra hour of daylight! Same thoughts every year. lol

It's actually reverting to STANDARD TIME.
It lasts just 18 weeks so not that long.

Hang in there everyone!
:D

Guys, don't forget to go to your User Control Panel, then Board Preferences, and mark that DST is not in effect. Then your time will be correct again.
