What time zone are we?

OK I feel dumb for asking but I'm useless with daylight savings and timezones and so on, so what time tomorrow would this be?

11:00, Western European Summer Time (London, GMT+01:00)

We're (UK) on BST at the moment, which is GMT + 1 as well.

Correct - but everyone gets very confused and most Europeans think BST is GMT.

My advice? Double check with whoever sent you the time!

So if I'm in the UK they're saying 11am as by my watch.

[Scotfox]

Yup exactly

We are British Summer Time but that is the same as Western European Summer Time. So 11.00 there is 11.00 here.

UTC, get with it.

I'm having great fun with time zones at the moment!

Two weeks ago, China via Amsterdam.
Last week Cuba vis Paris
This week Chicago via washington DC.

My watch and phones are getting worn out with all the changes!!

Brilliant thanks, now I don't feel quite so thick.
