Greenwich Mean Time

I love the move back to winter time. The evenings seem so much cosier and I like the lighter mornings.

I also like the thought that we are back on Greenwich Mean Time and that the whole world takes its time from us. New Yorkers know they are five hours behind us, people in Hong Kong know they are eight hours ahead of us and so on. I wish they hadn't renamed it "universal time" as I prefer "Greenwich", but whatever you call it it is still our time and stems from when we put ourselves at the centre of the world.
