PUBLIC POLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have mine on auto-confirm (PC) and manual (phone) so even if it'd tried to, it wouldn't have.

No....but I forgot and had angry people at my house who I wasn't going to go and meet for another hour.

Both changed over automatically. Was in work at the time anyway, so didnt exactly forget, considering i had to get up a ladder and change all the clocks. Put them 5 minutes fast so i can call last orders earlier. I'm a ****

The point morgie is making is that in Australia, daylight savings was pushed back a week in some areas, so it stuffed up on a lot of digitalized things that usually do it automatically. In fact, as I write on this university computer, it is an hour behind due to adjusting a week early.

I'm in Queensland, non existent here. Seems more of a issue then mental health problems for example.

ffs. can't believe we're still waiting for it to end in nz. don't know why they thought they'd extend the time. really stupid

Never really understood the great virtue of DST...............too much trouble if you ask me.

I love it. Mybirthday is in the middle of June so it means daylight goes on nice and late for the BBQ..it would anyway but it's always a better party when you're outside alter. People complain of bad light when playing cricket otherwise.
