Yemi,
:-D
With risk to hijack this thread:
GMT is still valid reference point (even in UK), it is just that it is
GMT+1 over here.
Sorry for the confusion, not all places do summer time adjustment.
I was making an assumption and now I have a big plate of humble pie to
eat and large spoon waiting for me ...
Cheers
St Pancras
