As we are visiting the Algarve from Tuesday 31 October would appreciate knowing whether your clocks go back an hour this weekend as they do here in the UK.

Thanks, Richard & Babs

Like paper sizes (A4, A5, A3), the whole of Europe is harmonized with the clock change. Its those Americans who stand out from the crowd*

* Well, thats a very polite way of saying it

Don't class Canada in with "The Americas" please. We turn our clocks back this weekend also.

Canada, I would never infer any bad association upon your lovely people

Actually, most (not all

) US states go back one hour this weekend as well, its the Spring change where they (and Canada, I am afraid to say) are out of sync with Europe.

You are right E-Richard. We are always in CVO when the clocks go forward in the spring and a week later when we arrive home they have just changed.
