How bloody inconsiderate of you Gladys state dwellers. I love all daylight savings and then you go and call fulltime on it again.

I sit here with a recently issued card carrying Old Age Pensioners Card, awarded to me by PM Scummo.

One of the few joys I had left in my twilight years was the opportunity to watch my favourite TV shows an hour earlier because of the wonders of Daylight Saving.

I could stream and watch SBS World news at 5.30pm instead of 6.30pm. I could watch 7.30 at 6.30pm and even watch Channel Neins Rugby League coverage at 7.05pm instead of the 8.05 kick off. Hard Quiz ..... Hard Quiz, I could watch it at 7pm. Now I have to stay awake till all hours to watch my shows on their broadcasted times.

You'd be surprised how beneficial it is to go to bed an hour earlier. But now I am being punished because Gladys had to turn the bloody clocks back. Wench,

I curse youse all.

Getting much better sleep now.My inbuilt clock is lapping it up.
We have high bleeding skin cancer rates, so they bring in daylight saving, so we can spend more time in the sun.WTF.
Think of the farmers.
Sand the extra hour fades the curtains:p

I knew an old guy once who lived in Qld and travelled to NSW during daylight saving.
He had to put his watch forward an hour.
He passed away whilst he was there.
I always felt what a shame he was ripped off an hour of his life he never got back.

Yeah, can totally relate, was asleep at halftime. Woke up 2 hours later right on time for the 2nd half replay. I live on broken sleep.

The 8.05 kick off on Thursday & Friday is the worst, start work at 5am every Friday Saturday Sunday and footy season kills me. Everyone I know hates the 8 kick off, I’m sure they would get more people watching earlier
