   UK's timezone is GMT (+0000) while most other western European
countries like Spain, France, Germany, etc are in GMT +1000.

   This year, we all changed to DST last Sunday morning.
You're right... I said saturday, but it was acutally sunday:)
Saturday after midnight :)

I live in the netherlands, and in winter time my time zone is CET
(UTC/GMT + 1), now in summer time, my time zone is CEST (UTC/GMT + 2)

I think that makes all difference in the problem.
