Daylight Savings


I've set everyone who had their timezone of +11 to +10, and also I've set everyone who had no time offset to +10. I did not change anyone else's timezone.

That should bring everyone to the right timezone, except for the few members who live in the UK who are swearing at me right now.

If you need to adjust your time zone, go to "Control Panel / Options" in the top right hand corner of the screen, click on edit profile, scroll down to the time zone and change it what you need.

I forgot to save up My daylight savings time....
So Now, I have No Spare Time what so ever !!!!!

and I didn't realise it ended today until I looked at the time on My computer this morning.. and it was the correct time...
Now I just have to change the hands on 6 clocks and change about 8 digital devices not including the car, or My two watches, which I have already changed.....

Didn't anyone think of the future with Daylight saving time...
and that every device made these days usually has a digital clock attached to it.....

the white thing in the pic is My torque converter..

Thank God it is over.
Where I live the sun sets 20 mins later than in Adelaide, and Adelaide's time is set somewhere near Portland (Vic) I think.
It makes trying to get my kids to bed at any reasonable time an absolute nightmare.

Nah, DST is great. I wish it was all year round.

As a kid, I remember being forced to go to bed whilst it was still light, so the "reasonable time" thing is just how well you can "negotiate" with the kids.
