Eily’s Report – 29th October

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.

Oh Thank God, the weekend for changing the clocks is over. I have no hesitation nor shame in admitting that I got it all wrong. To go forward or backward which should it be. You’d think that it was a simple thing to do, and do you know I’m still thinking, did I lose and hour or gain one. There is a big difference between the clock on the wall and the body clock and I’m not the only one to be confused by it. All over the country babies and little children will be waking at wrong times because of it, so why should I worry. The difference is most noticeable in the evenings when the darkness comes down so early. It takes a lot of planning to find a way to pass the long hours before bedtime, on your own. Thanks to the many pastimes which we are picking up again at classes and group meeting we have lots to choose from. Knitting and Crochet etc. are growing in popularity and can be done while watching TV. Others are learning card games such as 45 and bridge which will enable them to play in organised games in parish halls. It is very import that as many events for the elderly, be held in the daytime. With the night coming down at six o’clock, it isn’t easy to face out to something at 7.30.or 8. ‘at our age’.
