Alan Zoff Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 When I wake up tomorrow, I wonder if the clock in my car will be right again after 6 months or 2 hours out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I am glad that we are not the only ones with car clocks that are always wrong. Although, I rather proudly managed what our garage did not manage last autumn, and changed the time. Whether I will be able to remember again, I have no idea, because I was messing on for about an hour when I managed.I have started wearing a watch, cannot be doing with checking the time on my mobile phone, and the car clock will be what it will be now.We have one of these multi things that act like a barometer, predicting weather, etc etc as well as an alarm and and clock. The alarm on that goes off at least twice a day and we cannot stop it.It is now one of those things that anyone who comes into the house implies that we don't know what we are doing....... which in fairness, we don't, as we cannot stop it....... but that they know better. Everyone has had a go and the only thing that has happened is that the alarm times have changed, but the alarm goes off, dare I say, as regularly as clockwork.The rest of the bloody thing works well though, so I loathe to remove the battery.

Alan Zoff Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share Posted March 29, 2020 Everything seems to me to be far more complicated, and have far more options, than I really need. Years ago we had a Renault 16 with very simple heater controls that worked brilliantly. Fresh air on my face, toasty warm feet. The heater in my present car has 20 pages of instructions in the vehicle manual which I really can't be arsed to read and would never remember if I did. And as for the trip computer settings, well, not a chance. Life's too short.Although my 4 year old grandson would no doubt suss it all out in a flash.

Judith-aka-Judith Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 By the time I get back into the car I might well have forgotten not only the time but the day .. but I do know how to change it when I remember ... but doesn't it all seem so unimportant at the moment .. priorities, priorities. Because of the change of hour, I'm currently still n the wrong hour in my body and sleeping in .. today I thought, does it matter that I'm only having breakfast at 10am .. you are not going anywhere ..!!

idun Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I am still on GMT and was up an hour later, but had gone to bed an hour later too as I wasn't tired.I suppose that in Pre-CV days, I would have made an effort to get into a new rhythm, but what the heck.

Alan Zoff Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 I was up at 6am (5am). Had breakfast. Watched some old Cheers episodes and then went back to bed. Woke at 11.30am."What the heck" seems to sum things up nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're as fresh today as when they were first screened. Isn't it time you were in bed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
