Daylight Savings

[Punk Rooster]

Due to daylight savings, to get the correct time on the site, you need to go to the

User Control Panel
>>> Board Preferences

& change it from +9.30 Adelaide to +10:30 Lord Howe.

Nah, change the setting underneath that in your profile:
Summer Time/DST is in effect:

Leave your timezone alone, just check when DST is in effect and change it back to no when its not, that's what its there for.

Time Zones have been ridiculous for those who have been travelling lately.

Last week, at midday in Adelaide, it was 1.30pm in Tassie and 12.30pm in QLD
This week (I think), at midday in Adelaide it is 12.30pm in Tassie, 11.00am in NT and 11.30am in QLD.

Welcome to Australia tourists! Where the bloody hell are ya? I can probably help you out there but just don't ask me the time!

Adelaide is normally on approximately Warnambool time, and thus only 1/2 hour behind EST. This time of year, we move our clocks closer to New Zealand!

Just when I can get up comfortably in the mornings they muck it up for me. It was worse in Adelaide because you finish up 1 1/2 hours in front of correct zone time and the sun.

I love(d) daylight savings.
We don't have it here in Japan. If ever a country needed daylight savings it is this one, so any people never return home while the sun still shines. I reckon if they tried it they'd fall in love with it also.

Ive never experienced anyhting like the negative response to daylight saving that there is over here in WA. This is the second year of a three year trial, before it will be put to a referendum. The outcry is a constant thing and to the point that the Opposition leader, is on TV every day telling you to go to your state members office and complain and allow for a referendum to be hed early, cos we dont like it. The Shire of Murchison, that has Geraldton as its major city, one of the biggest ports in the nation does not regonise daylight savings at all.....just to make the whole thing even more unpopular

I've always been a fan of it, but this year is the 1st time I've found myself wishing we didn't have it.

Big fan of DLS. When on dayshift-plenty of after hours time after work. On afternoon shift- daylight hours to work in. All good IMO.

Having recently returned from overseas, I had been experiencing jetlag, waking up at 4 AM and crashing at 8PM, that sort of thing.

After a week of going to work I managed to stretch the body clock to waking up at 5:30 AM. Then daylight savings kicked in, and took care of the remaining hour for me.

So for the first time in my life, I REEEALY apreciated losing the hour at the start of daylight savings
