It affects me in so far as it takes me about a wrew to adjust all the clocks in my house, so I'm in a different time zone from room to room. And yes, I do have a lot of clocks because I am always running late. It takes my internal clock about a week to adjust too. No pets, but the wild birds let me know I am sleeping in and they are missing their breakfast. No BST for them!
I was in the hairdressers once when I heard a customer say ... "I just don't understand what they mean when they say the days are getting shorter ... are there still 24 hours in the day?" ... and yes, she was being serious
Reminds me of the lady who, after giving birth prematurely, asked the midwife, "Will my baby's birthday be today, or the day he should have been born?"
It affects me because I always go running at about 4:30 pm each day ( except weekends) so I have to don a head torch and flak jacket (sorry hi viz vest) and try to avoid all the Kamikaze pilots on their way home trying to take me with them as they speed towards me

I too have a lot of clocks which are all done on the Saturday night before going to bed. Gave myself a shock just now as I had not changed the one in the garage and rushed into the house to start dinner only to find I still had an hour to go!

I don't care really, I prefer light in the evenings, but I'm up at 57N (same as Aberdeen) so it really makes little difference by the time one hits real winter, it's still dark all the non work hours. Our dogs are annoying for a couple of days thinking their dinner is late, and I have to figure out how to change the car clock each time.
An Australian told me that she heard someone say she was agin daylight saving as it would fade the curtains. I remember learning about the Gregorian calendar riots at school. Something similar perhaps
Drives me nuts, medics say it takes at least a week for the old body clock to re-set, hubby usually gets up at 4 or 5 for work, he has been getting up earlier, and wanting to go to bed at 8.30,
