WE CAN TURN BACK TIME

Small towns and villagers in England are sometimes accused of being in a timewarp.
In Brigg, at present, we might have to accept that description as being true - in part.
For no-one has yet got round to adjusting our most prominent timepiece - the two-faced clock on top of the North Lincolnshire Council-owned Buttercross, fronting onto the Market Place.
Despite millions of other UK timepieces, computers and machines having been updated at the weekend to keep British Summer Time, ours is still an hour 'out'.
Maybe someone will be able to get it sorted by market day, when the town enjoys its customary influx of folk from surrounding villages.
