The relevant UK National Archives file has a public information poster used in Ireland to inform people of the 35-minute clock adjustment. What times people were actually using in Ireland, I don't know.
I'd be interested to see this, if you have a copy.
I didn't get a copy. http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/1999-September/001712.html is what I wrote at the time about that research session, and my notes don't give any more information about that poster (in particular, I didn't note any page reference within HO 45/10811/312364 for the poster, so requesting a copy remotely would probably involve paying for National Archives staff to go through the file to locate the poster based on a description). -- Joseph S.
