    Irish News, New Zealand Tablet Rōrahi XXV, Putanga 22, 1 Whiringa-ā-nuku 1897, Page 9: On Saturday, August 28th, their Royal Highnesses will proceed to Killarney House, the seat of the Earl and Countess of Kenmare, where they will remain for three days, and will make a short trip to Valencia. From Killarney their Royal Highnesses go to Adare Manor on a visit to the Earl and Countess of Dunraven. On leaving Adare their Royal Highnesses will travel to Killaloe, and go by special steamboat to Banagher, proceeding by rail to Baronscourt, the seat of the Duke and Duchess of Abercorn, where they will stay for three days, and a large garden party will be given at Baronscourt in their honour. So all going to plan, this was around September 1st 1897.

    "...at Hickey's..." I belive the correct term is traumatic decompression haematoma.

    I knew a farmer once who would stay on "old time", in his case he ignored the one hour movements in March and October. British Summer Time was first established by the Summer Time Act 1916, after a campaign by builder William Willett. His original proposal was to move the clocks forward by 80 minutes, in 20-minute weekly steps on Sundays in April and by the reverse procedure in September. In 1916 BST began on 21 May and ended on 1 October.

    DannyM8 So do you reckon the bus service ignored the change in the hour then (presumably alongside other people like your farmer, or maybe to suit people like your farmer)?
  • DannyM8 said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons It seems that Old Time was a rural and farming practice. listserv.heanet.ie/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1303&L=seanchas-l... When the idea was introduced in Ireland it was adopted in the towns and cities, but not everywhere by farming communities. In the rural district in which I lived the newly-introduced summer time was called "New Time" but we had "Old Time" all year round. We had to be careful when planning to attend an event elsewhere; was it "New Time" or "Old Time"
