Putting the clock forward at Avebury Stone Circle. Stone Age man didn’t have daylight saving, so twice a year National Trust staff have to move one of the stones

Yes... I thought so... as they stopped moving the stones a few years ago because of an EU rule...

Most clocks these days are so friggin' complicated that I don't know how the hell to alter them.
At least they are accurate for six months of the year................

Would've made a PERFECT April fool joke and it would've been so funny to see how many would fall for it.

The whole point of it was it posted on the morning the clocks went forward. You must admit, those photoshops are good.

Yes it's a good photoshop.... but when I saw that huge boulder I realised that its weight would surely have instantly melted those two tiny tyres.
