I realized (as I was commuting) this morning, that some people must live near timezone borders.

How does that work for you? Do you think in work time at home? Home time at work?

It must be easier these days with smartphones and smart watches automatically adjusting time according to you location?

Share your experience please, I'm curious!

I once took my then girlfriend to the Isle of Skye, on what happened to be the day the clocks went back.

It wasn't until a week later while travelling back she asked why her clock hadn't changed back

Took me a while to work out she thought Skye had its own time zone

Most adorable thing ever (for reference, Skye is only 50 miles long, and about a mile from the mainland) ๐Ÿ˜Š
