I hate having to turn the clocks back - gets dark to early.

Are you sertain?
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Didn't have to worry about saving daylight here so the clock can stay as is.

Have just added an extra hours worth of sand into the bottom of my hourglass.

I managed to save almost 3 hours of daylight this summer. Should I offer it for sale on eBay?
Could be real handy if you want to cut the lawn at 2am?

Hm... What is Daylight Savings? .....

It is best explained by saying.. The Gummint decided to cut a foot off the top of a blanket, sew it to the bottom,
and then tried (at great expense) to convince all persons affected, that they now have a longer blanket.

There was a bloke took a photo of one of the new $5 notes upside down and put it up for auction on eBay saying it had been printed wrongly and got a fortune for it, so Kev I reckon you should try selling those 3 hours.  :grin

They might expect 3 hours of labor. Better word the ad carefully.
