Don, you are on the right track. Somehow it changed to metric time (which is faster than imperial) & we are in the process of converting it back. Pete, DLRA #6

So does this mean we now go to a 10 day week ?

If so , how long are the weekends? And, how will this impact on traditional long weekends? Will it fade the curtains?

Not sure if I'm entirely in favour of this idea. Perhaps an Environmental Impact Statement is in order? :) :) :) :)
