Hopefully everyone remembered to put their clocks forward last night but I must warn you of another time zone, this is Council Operating Time.
Let me explain.
I turned up at the recycling depot todat at 13.52 to find the gates being locked when I asked what was happening I was informed that he was closing for lunch.
When I pointed out that there was 8 minutes to go I was told that his watch said 14:02 and as he opened to his watch he closed to his watch.
Fair enough I said I'll see you in half an hour.
I returned at 14:20 BST but it didn't open until 14:28 BST or 14:38 COT.
I wasn't the only one waiting.
Anyone else come across COT?
