Nice blog!

Thanks Rachel! I'll be adding your link on my blog under this topic Time.
I still feel that this changing of the clocks is not necessary in our modern age. The amount of electricity that is used for lighting is not important anymore. Instead when we are at work, we use the computer, charge our phones. No, the real reason that we still do this outdated action is for the benefit of the amateur sports industry. When the clocks turn back, there is more light in the afternoon, so more people feel the urge to go out and play tennis, golf, so swimming before coming home after work. At least for a few months there is a surge in these sports.
Think about it.
