I'm glad the clocks have gone forward. That extra hour makes all the difference when phoning my dad in South Africa - particularly in the evenings

Yep. And since Aus has different timelines never mind the rest of the world, it's good to have one of these clocks so you don't hurt your brain working it out

Not really. No different from time zones across Europe. I use the Mozilla world clocks and have the three I need on the bottom of the screen all the time.
