Daylight Saving 2012

Daylight saving ends in New South Wales on Sunday 1 April 2012, at 3:00 am when clocks will be put back one hour.

Daylight saving will begin again in New South Wales on Sunday 7 October 2012 at 2:00 am, when clocks will be put forward one hour.

For future summers, daylight saving in New South Wales begins at 2:00 am, Eastern Standard Time, on the first Sunday in October and ends at 3:00 am Eastern Daylight Saving Time on the first Sunday in April.
 
It also end in South Oz tonight and should be all Australian states that do it. I think they synchronised a couple of years ago.

The poor cows get to go back to normal time now and get back to producing milk.
Also everyone will have to replace their faded curtains!
 
Thank goodness we get off daylight saving time in QLD.... lol
 
Sad really. I think we should have daylight savings all year round.

The way I see it the more daylight the better and daylight is wasted before 6:00am....
 
Wonder how many people are going to blame there phones tomorrow for either sleeping in or being early for something tomorrow.
 
How many people worked an extra hour last night for free!
 
The AFF time stamp on posts need to be adjusted for end of daylight saving time.

But that would mean in winter Sunrise will be at 8am.

Mmm, I got suckered last year with that. This year I get the extra hour sleep.

Well, not exactly. Now, little Miss VC decides it's time to get up an hour earlier than usual! Just before 0500 both days so far . AAAAARGH!!!

Oh well, next four days I'm up at 0430 anyway, so Mrs VC can deal with it. Hee hee.

Did I mention the dog starts whining for his dinner an hour earlier too? :evil:
 
I reckon daylight savings should start at the start of September and end in the middle of April.
