I was about to say no they go forward then I realised you are on the other side of the world! Ours went forward into daylight saving last night (roll on summer)

Yes, it's tough for us to be enjoying summer and longer days... Enjoy your winter. At least you have a 4WD to help you when the roads aren't gritted for snow!

Snow? what is this word? what does it mean? Perhaps its some sort of weather, lilke RAIN.

So Mark Solesbury was, like

Letter in The Times the other day, asking why we don't have the extra hour in bed on a Monday, when we'd all appreciate it, rather than on a Sunday, when most can have a lie-in anyway if they want. Easy, thought I - don't alter your clocks, spend Sunday on BST, and put the clocks back on Sunday night. So that's what we've done. I'm looking forward to Monday - a whole hour extra in bed. I feel like a teenager.

...but...

Tesco's have run out of them

what snow! bah humbug. we had a little bit last year but i was at work that day and missed it!

For us they went forward.

Same here. I'll be over in Sydney next week - if I get any spare time I'll take a look at Emu Plains.

I hadn't realised you made the change on the same date.

You've answered a question my father asked me on Sunday.
