Some of you have asked how many hours ahead of U.S. time is Oxford, so we wanted to let you know. Oxford/London are five hours ahead of Atlanta/New York (the Eastern time zone).
So what we tell Emily is that when we're eating lunch here, our friends and family in America are waking up and eating breakfast. And when we're eating dinner, you're eating lunch.
Of course the main ways this time difference affects our days are with Skype calls and college football Saturdays. When UGA plays in the afternoon, it's a nice prime time game here, but night games in the States are a challenge!
The UK does observe Daylight Savings time so we are about to "fall back" as well and will stay five hours ahead through the winter.
