The clocks on the article are a little confusing since it does seem to<br>
show 2AM to 1AM ... which is obviously wrong :) Or ignoring the arrow,<br>
and reading from right to left then 1AM Jumps to 2AM and I think I would<br>
read "as of one o'clock" to mean at one the clocks jump forward. But<br>
this is a fairly common problem with these announcements? They can be a<br>
little imprecise as to when the event happens ....<br>
