In any case I don't think I be free until an hour or two after the session starts.

Murph,

Is that an hour or two standard time or an hour or two daylight savings time?

Man, I'm so bloody confused with all these different times. I'm reverting to the old sand clock. :lol:

Oh dear - this is going to be fun.

Session tonight starts at 6.30 pm GMT (which will be usual 7.30pm for UK guys due to switch today to BST).

Everyone else reference 6.30pm GMT and work out your own times using the calculator on our sites ftont page.

Thats the point of GMT/Universal it doesn't change... you change in relation to it. Once you know where YOU are in realtion to GMT it does not matter what the other persons time zone is, as long as they too know their relationship to GMT.... and times are then quoted as GMT and not local time.

Otherwise everyone has to know where everyone else lives, what time zone they are in and when and if they change clocks etc.
