Growing up with daylight saving I have always enjoyed it due to more light at end of day. But as I am approaching my first 'early' in nearly 2 decades I am starting to think the early sunlight may be better - I'm sure you QLDers will agree.
Now the farkin clocks go forward an hour tonight and it will be dark in the mornings for the next few weeks. Just my luck.
Your thoughts ?

Pretty much killed it off in our referendum I think a couple of years ago , don't really care myself , early surf or early beer or earlier snogs

I'm not too sure we'll ever see it again here , in summer we get light until pretty much up to 8 pm and it looked like that was enough for the majority.
Still that would be something having light until well into the night like the Nth Hemisphere - unreal , could go for a "night" surf if we had that here and our warmer water

i was always a fan of daylight saving...now i love being able to surf at 4,30 while most still sleep

Same day light saving sucks , just get to go inthe water at 5am then day light saving comes along and farrrks it up

I like the concept but are concerned that my curtains will fade as they will get an extra hour of sunlight on them at the end of each day

I get it on the east coast with the sun coming up over the ocean but in WA for most of the time when we had it you lost the chance for an early surf or some form of exercise in the morning.

With a belting seabreeze in the afternoon and not into kiting I never get that excited to do anything on the beach through summer in the afternoon and even without daylight saving its still light in WA in summer till 8pm.

It seems the ones who wanted it the most were the business types who still had time to exercise after their 12 hours in the office. They just needed to get some work life balance

I'm worried my dairy cows won't know what time they will get milked....

Hahaha ,

I love daylight saving extra hour on the beach after work , great .

I hate the 1 st Monday morning after daylight saving starts , trying to get kids out of bed an hour earlier and get to work sux . But mid summer with twighlight as well , bring it on

No DLS in QLD = early start = early to bed = no farkin bottle shops open at 7:30 = Scotty not happy camper.
