I see, it's just a windoze issue ... the clock headline reports GMT+01:00
but the shown time is correct, seems it handles the summertime apart.
At least the displayed- and the net-time is reported correct, even the
line where it tells 'western european summertime' is misleading.

Thanks for the hint where the border between Western and Central Time is.
