Hi Rob:
Thanks for the feedback.
Just to throw one in from "left field", the script is written in AWK, not
PHP (told you I was a novice!)
Have confirmed that 'systime' refers to hardware clock, so I have a quick
and dirty work-around by adding '3600' (seconds) to STRFTIME, but will look
into a cleaner solution.
Thanks & Regards,
Malcolm.

Check your timezone settings in php.ini
