I'm getting back my hour
they took it in the spring
never asked if I would mind
have never worked out why they do it.
When a kid, and dads went out to war
they made it two, so
we went to bed in sunshine
to save on lights and coal
But farmers didn't like it
upset the cows they said
so when we'd won,
and search lights were no more
they took one off us,
Bin like that ever since.
At least they do it on a Sunday
two a.m I think, but the chap
who does the parish clock
doesn't work on Sundays,
normal time will resume, again
just like it was last year,
by Thursday at the latest.

Oh jolly good! Glad I was able to help
Soooo annoying to lose stuff - I've often been grateful for the auto-save function - so much quicker to only have to re-do some, rather than the whole post 
I don't like it when we have to change the clocks either - messes up the body clock
It affects all the animals too! When I had a dog they could never understand why their walks and dinner etc were at different times 
Bet Jack doesn't like his timetable being changed either He'll no doubt be crying for his walks and dinner an hour before the clock says it's time on Monday -

Excellent - I'm glad you retrieved it - you'll have learned another trick then?

Hi Ravingmad
Thanks for your help as you see I've found it or should say found all but the last two lines which I have replaced !
