Thread: Yeah daylight savings !i

Woohoo, I love daylight saving!!!!

I think it means you can take a two hour flight from Auckland, and land in Sydney half an hour before you left. Simples!!

Clock? we dont need no stinking clock...

I already get up at 4am, how much earlier am I supposed to get up?

Melbourne has a difference of over 5 hours of daylight from mid Winter to mid Summer, Darwin is less than an hour and a half - pretty big difference IMO and it makes it more than worthwhile.
