Careful! Clock fiddling imminent! Issue 10 1431 S.R.
I know, I am a lazy Hobbit: It's been more than half a year since I wrote an Editorial. Lots of things have happened in the meantime, but those were all announced in this, your Bramblebury Gazette. I am extremely grateful to all of you who have organised events, written announcements and made the drawings for the articles.
But Iam just in time to warn you about that ritual that comes around twice a year, once in Spring, once in Fall: the (dreaded) clock fiddling. On Sunday October 25 the clocks will have changed during the night going back one hour. But that in itself is not the dreaded part! The thing is, that only Hobbits East of the Big Pond change their clocks on October 25th. The Hobbits West of the Big Pond do it too, but one week later, on November 1st.
