    Are you aware that London is in Europe?

    They have a hell of a lot more than several.

    I'll repeat myself and Matt Garner: It changes depending on where you live. It does not take a rocket scientists to figure out that if it says Europe/London then it's talking about what time it is in London. If you live in London, Manchester, Burnley, Lincoln, anywhere in England or Scotland then you know what time it is in London.

    Actually when I showed it to Garion he said he will change it, so yeah its not clear.

    Its just very poorly worded.

    Also:

    being more than two but fewer than many in number or kind: several ways of doing it.
    I think there are six time zones so what the hell is wrong with my use of the word "several" :S. Gosh you are so irritating.

    Secondly if you click it, it says:

    The current Europe/London time zone offset is:
    UTC/GMT +1 hours
    Events staff replied and explained it, no point arguing with you. Just a waste of time.

    Perhaps it would make sense to change it so it doesn't say Europe or rather it says London (Europe) or Madrid (Europe) or whatever. I have to agree that it's a little confusing as it suggests that the time zone for London is the same for any in Europe and that may confuse newer users attempting to use the calendar. It is a trivial thing but if it is easily changed there is no harm in changing it I don't think.

    I'm sure that David will do this as soon as he can as it shouldn't take him long.
    Hopefully that issue is now resolved.
