Oops. Welshonion. A google nosey shows that you are correct in the summer vs winter evenings. It's either down to Chris Martin's g,g granddad or Benjamin Franklin as to who decided daylight savings?
Apparently Spain is going to go back to GMT as opposed to Central European Time - 1 hour ahead of us. They changed to show solidarity with Germany in the war. Portugal has never changed from GMT.

PS: I hope you didn't mind me starting the "watching seedlings grow" thread this year

Dear Kitty, Summer Time was brought in to give longer Summer evenings. In Winter we revert to GMT.
