Yes, it happens on the last Sunday in March in Britain. Sunday so that it disrupts work as little as possible. So you 'lose' an hour's sleep if you wake up when your clocks and alarms are set to yesterday's time. The clocks change after midnight on Saturday, too late for most people to reset their clocks.
Luckily we have one clock set to radio controlled time which automatically resets itself. But you have to check your cooker, laptop. car clock, and watches.
How do you re-set your watch? Either pin the instructions on a kitchen or office notice board or look up online.
Most watches are similar. By trial and error you can find out what happens when you fiddle with each control. Write it down.
Updating Your Watch
On my watch, which has four control buttons, the top left button is the light.
Look closely, with a magnifying glass, and my watch has text in tiny letters saying which button is which.
The left resets the time, minutes and seconds, but you have to press it in.
America, Canada, and Australia and New Zealand, as well as Europe, are on different time zones.
To end on a light note, somebody wrote a post saying they had lost an hour and asking where to find it. I told them, 'You are very lucky. I just had a birthday and lost a whole year.'
