Thanks Alex,
I feel your sentiments and totally agree with you.  Allow me to yet again "explain".
I had deliberately inquired before-hand from Charles regarding the same (see my earlier post). In effect I set the rules :). Lest I sound like someone in self defense mode, I have now learnt that the currently time zone GMT+3  (Jeddah as Ref) and GMT (London as Ref), curently, have a real daylight saving adjustment of  6 min between them.
I deliberately set out to test this. :) :) :). Else how do u explain the "risk" i took on the freebies?
I felt that I owed Charles an explanation since he was gracious enough to point out the misdemeanor.
