Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Turn on a light Mitch... The dark doesn't stop you doing your assignments... But I know what you are getting at... I too seem to eat later, and then sleep worse. I am sure we will all get used to those things...

Nup.

pffft

I was just able to spend two hours shovelling gravel after work - I'd only get 1 hour without daylight saving. Cant shovel gravel around at 5am either.

Bloody WA. Wait Awhile indeed.

I Vote Mega NO!

We all know that the Sun shines out of E.B.'S @ss, and if he has to get up an hour early,
He may get grumpy and turn off the Forum

Might be????? Will be...

First night of day light saving and I put my mobile phone forward an hour as we were all told... Got up early the next morning with the alarm and went into work, but started to wonder what was going on when everyone was late.. Turns out my phone put ts self forward an extra hour during the night and I was an hour early for work....

I hate DLS....

Unfortunately Dicko, they don't care what we want. Which part of no don't they get.

We were all there by 8am for the expo. I thought I could smell bacon cooking, convinced myself I was imagining things, but no Joel had been there a little while and had breakfast ready for us oooh!

Damn you have a photo of everything Faye....

Hahahaha!
the mobi teks had it in for you that day Joel
...and managed to get a few other people as well
I too was early

I was in QLD over the weekend and daylight saving came up in conversation.

Apparently back in world war II it was started to save electricty (thats according to my wifes Grandmother).

Interesting that mitchb is under 18 and hates DLS, my son has just turned 18 and hates it, and most of the younger generation seem the same, I think in the end the vote will be No but they will force it upon us,
EB modern technology is amazing
And Aquaponic Bacon the mind boggles
And yes Stuart totally correct, WA also had DLS in both world wars but this was for power saving and practical, would be useless trying it for these reasons today as everything we have depends on power, though some say they don't use aircons til later in the evening, a lot do, last year there was a ad campaign trying to get everyone to turn off power in peak times as our supply was overloaded, this didn't happen before DLS

I expressed my concerns to the cancer council WA, this link is their updated position, draw your own conclusions.

you'd have more impact getting the long holidays moved to the middle of winter...

whilst i voted yes for DLS i do have to agree that once its been voted on they should leave it be no i no after all


Cheers pete

In all honesty, (Said no before, Got the laugh)
I've grown up with DLS, (I'm Now aged 45)
The first couple of days can be a pain,
But after that, everything sort of falls into line,
Sometimes I find myself eating later, or feeling more tired at bedtime,
but that is usually because I've just come home from work and done the lawns,
or some gardening, or something else that makes me Knackered on the weekend!

Tonight I washed 500litres of Hydroton, In the daylight!
Not bad for a 5:30 start!

Deep down I look forward to it,
