I just heard on the news that Daylight Saving in NSW finishes tonight. I thought that it was finishing on the 1 April or was that just an April Fools Joke.

So don't forget to wind your clocks back tonight if you live in NSW

Great and I have to start work at 7.30am in the morning and finish at about 9am Monday.
It is going to be a long day I think.

Gramps,

That extra hour was spent up with the kids who didn't know any different.

I hate the concept, I can not wait until I move back to QLD and have the same time all year round.

As I said previously, I thought it was next weekend but that must have been a cruel April Fools Joke played on me by the Dairy maunfacturer that I have. It clearly states that it finishes next weekend for NSW.

Oh well, tomorrows the last day at work for a few months. 3 weeks holidays then ?? how long post Disc Fusion. Cant wait (for the Holidays not the recovery period of the Op) ha ha ha

Welcome back to the real world.
Been working on EST all the time. :o)))

Didn't think it had been such a hassle.

So tell me, what were all the extra things you got done with an extra hour of sunlight, that you are now going to have to give up??

Just stirring.

There is an interesting table on Site Link that gives the dates of implementation of daylight saving for every year it has occurred in Australia
