I refused to do anything to mine three weeks ago.

That was something I found difficult when I was travelling internationally when different countries changed at different times and airlines didn't change at the same time.

Worst time to be in a hotel n a layover when time changed.
Some hotel bedside clocks automatically adjusted for time change and others didn't.
You could outsmart yourself if you were trying to be proactive and change the clock at bedtime only negate what you had done or double the change.
Either way...Not a good TIME.

Back in 2000, when the US DST change was in April, the weekend after the UK, we went forward an hour in the UK, then flew to Boston midweek, so back six, then at the weekend moved forward another hour. Then over the next three weeks we moved back another three hours as we drove steadily westward. Leisurely road trip across the US, in the days before widespread GPS and maps, so while we were in Boston we bought a US road atlas (remember those?)

I seem to remember our outbound flight departure time was changed, so it would arrive in Boston at the same US time. It must play hell with scheduling, even with areas that change at the same time, because anything that's flying at 2am local is going to arrive an hour late.

Time to dig out the instructions for the bedroom projection clock. Then try to read them. Then try to understand!

Tablet and mobile automatically change. Kitchen clock is on GMT bedroom clocks will be changed shortly. OFSO maybe do write your own instructions.

Most devices here and in Spain are coupled to the internet. Only the old fashioned timers need doing.

I leave my car clock permanently on summer time - I am never in a hurry in winter.

May I remind the joke that changing the clock on the stove needs a Electric Engineering Degree to switch from/to DST or to reset after a power failure.

I have changed all of the clocks except for the one that I have forgotten, I don't know which one it is but sometime during the next week or so it will reveal itself, it happens every time we change the clocks and it is a different one very time!!!

[G-CPTN]

Surely you should tick them off?

[Fox3WheresMyBanana]

..or even tock them off?

[Ex-Ascot]

No change here.

Most clocks connected to the internet or "Radio Controlled" the exception being the convection oven and the microwave.
Both are the same make and one is easy to change the other is a nightmare and needs the touch of a midwife.
Never find one when you want one.

2. Wall clocks to be wound forward 1 hour.
3. 1 hour spent trying to reset the oven clock.
4. The car clock will remain 1 hour behind time until the clocks go back in October.
