I wish.
No daylight savings here, and this is one place that really &^%$$%%^ needs it.
They wonder why families are going downhill here, well, how the heck can kids play outside when it's dark at 7:30 in the middle of summer?
(That's not the end of it, but it's not helping things...)
Oh yeah, full sunlight at 4AM.
Whoever set the time zone for here out to have their inlet and outlet swapped over... :mad: :mad: :mad:

I didn't even know about it until my girlfriend asked me to change her mobile phone. I think I got all our clocks - you don't realise how many you have until daylight saving.

When you change your clocks, you should also change the batteries in your smoke alarms.
Mine have been giving low battery warning tones every ten minutes for the past two weeks. My wife kept asking me to change the batteries, but I stood my ground and waited till I had to change the clocks.

She'd changed the locks and I couldn't get back inside.
