Interesting. I didn't know that either, just blandly assumed it should be the same as the rest of Europe.

I've often wondered why Spain is an hour ahead of the uk, if you draw a vertical line from London where GMT is situated from North to South it more or less passes through the area GA sits in , for this reason I couldn't understand how we are an hour ahead of Spain
