Tick, tock.

As we're coming up to changing the clocks time - and you know how much I hate that - my eye was caught by a news story that Spain are considering moving from Central European Time to Greenwich Mean Time.  If you look at a map of the world, it's pretty obvious that that is where they should be, and apparently they once were, but Franco moved them on to CET in the early 1940s as he wished to align himself - and the country - with Hitler and Germany.  What I hadn't realised is that Portugal has always been on GMT, which must be an ongoing problem for those living either side of the border.  If they do go for the change, and time it to coincide with the end of Summertime, they could get themselves an extra two hours in bed!
