Tonight is when all the different clocks at home become the right time again ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Yes!! I couldnโ€™t work out how to change the clock in my car, but I only drive it once a week so left it.

The clock in my car sets the time automatically. From the radio stations. Which really sucks, as half of them are broadcasting with the wrong time. It isn't usually an issue, as when the phone is docked it shows the phone time. But if the phone isn't docked and I want to know the time, I need to tune to a station I know is broadcasting it correctly.

If your car is the same as mine, I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that the station you listen to hasn't updated their broadcast time for Daylight savings.

Tonight is the night I asked my partner "wait, when did the clock stop working?" and he responded "huh? We have a clock?"

Who knows when it stopped working, neither of us have looked at it for 2 years ๐Ÿ˜‚

And knowing us, neither of us will bother taking it down to fix or chuck for another 2 years. It's just wall decor now.
