I too am on UK time ( Oxford to be precise)
My /etc/conf.d/clock contains:

CLOCK="UTC"

# Select the proper timezone.  For valid values, peek inside of the
# /usr/share/zoneinfo/ directory.  For example, some common values are
# "America/New_York" or "EST5EDT" or "Europe/Berlin".

TIMEZONE="GB"

For NTP I followed the instructions in http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_NTP.

I hope this helps.
