Don't let your curtains fade with that extra sunlight.

Will stuff the cows up for milking, though.

No doubt there are "good" and "bad" things about - Daylight savings.

Don't have to worry about it.
We use "Real Time" up here, not some faked thingy.    :p

Only an issue when we have to phone into that "other country".
Have to think twice calling after 4:00 pm on business.

You know the best thing about Daylight Saving is we don't have it up here in Queensland  :grin

I got home from yesterday at 11pm  :H and hit the hay, not even giving the clocks a thought  :o. Luckily the phone changed itself  :thumb as I got called out again just after the alarm went off at 0630 this morning.

Feeling quite sleep deprived due to daylight savings starting in Tassie. Being up until 2.30am organising the team for leaving early this morning would have been bad enough, but getting up at 5.30 when the click tipped forward that hour meant only 2 hours sleep....

Can't wait to get home to real time and real weather!
