Daylight saving, bring it on. (for those states that actually have it)

No, we had the last one in March. It was only being done on a 3 year trial, again (apparently, it's been on trial many times) and a referendum was held which resulted in no more daylight saving.

True!

My OH (Melbourne born & bred) and a friend were moaning the other day about how they couldn't do another winter in Melbourne and how awful it was. Confused me because even though I'd gotten used to Brisbane winters after my first Melbourne one my general thought was...."was that it!?".

Truly, Melbourne winters are nothing, and definitely worth putting up with to escape the eternal darkness!

Look on the positive side. You wont have to re-new your curtains as often as us with daylight saving.

Enjoy your balmy summer evenings with the family, cooking BBQs in the park -with a torch so you dont burn the sausages.

You guys are more than welcome to come to a BBQ at my house anytime. Just have to keep John out of my beer fridge.

Did I happen to mention that this time in three weeks we will have daylight saving
