TijnemaThere you have why, you set it to GreenwiSh, which is kind of Greenwich but not quite. I think that being on the western end of Europe, those countries decided to adopt a more pan-European time zone, even if that does not match precisely their astronomical hour. That makes cross border businesses easier by having common working hours. UK's timezone is GMT (+0000) while most other western European countries like Spain, France, Germany, etc are in GMT +1000. It might also have to do with whether it is Savings Time or not. This year, we all changed to DST last Sunday morning. You're right... I said saturday, but it was acutally sunday:)My server's timezone is set to "(GMT) Greenwish Mean Time : Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London".
