First work day evening for daylight savings and it should be honking. Who’s excited?

Fantastic. Hope Qld "wakes up" to daylight saving soon. It is daylight here at around 4.15am, what the f*** are ya supposed to do if ya don't start work till 9am.????

Yep same here, but it was just priceless.

Although when I got home I got a rev or two regarding the big ol dead thing just north of the spot I went, and the vulture types feeding on it
Wondered why I was the only with a couple of tea baggers

Actually it was more than a rev, but I didn’t here about it til I got home. Glad I didn’t, sh1t scared wouldna gone near the water

Do I sense a business opportunity??
Daylight saving proof curtains!!!
Somebody could make a mint here.

You lucky truckies,

I had Dad duties yesterday and got to watch (It must of been nuclear up North)

But I'm outta here at 4 today and should have the time and conditions to give my body and equipment the punishment it deserves.

Happy Days

I've never got to the beach at 6.30pm after work and sailed before here in perth, yesterday was my first time ever, long live daylight savings, even if I have to replace my curtains a bit more regularly?

Do they really fade if you get one hour daylight extra in the evening I suppose curtain manufacturers have lobbied for daylight savings, there probably gonna make a mint?

Tuesday's I get my passout

hope that forecast holds good for tonight.... yeehaaaaaaaaa!

You poor sand gropers have been dictated to by dogmatic pollies, they conned you with that 3yr trial no vote just bend over.
You can't see over your own back fence luckily for us on the east coast we have a state boarder half way down the coast and yes I'm in the best half

Hmmm,
After discovering my shinbone was stronger than my board nose on Tuesday arvo I got to thinking.

Time is relative ! Right ?, so the only people who are affected by daylight saving are the slaves to the clock, like me.

So for Farmers and others it shouldn't make a bit of difference (You're still working from Sun up till Sun down).

I suppose that for the pensioners it means that all their favourite TV shows are on an hour later which might be past their bed time.

So harden up and dry up cause I love daylight saving 'cause it gives me more time to hurt myself.

Nurse !, more medication thank you .....

Count me in too! 4:30am might be a fine time to be awake if you're a native animal. I'd rather be sailing of an afternoon though. Bring some meat and have a BBQ at the beach while your gear dries off. Saves washing up at home!

TelecomGreg,

Come down and live on the border for a month, and you'll soon change your tune... heaps of people on both sides of the border, and incredible amounts of confusion due to the time difference. For example, my CDMA phone is usually an hour behind, because the qld tower is the one that it can see, but occasionally it will see the NSW tower, and this is sitting on the same place on my windowsill. It usually catches people out a couple of times, the old phrase "Missed you by an hour" is especially relevant when daylight savings first comes in.

I'm self employed, so really don't give a toss whether we have daylight savings or not, but I just want everyone to talk the same language so it's not so confusing! Is that too much to ask?
