I have told you once, about smoke alarms.

Enough said.

Having lived for years in NZ with daylight savings I was a hearty supporter, all the things you could do in the long evening sunlight.

But having lived in tropical QLD for a year I'm now on the side of the Queenslanders and don't want it.  Why?

When the sun sets it cools down.  So without daylight savings it will cool down one hour earlier.  And that's important, it's forecast for 31 deg C here in Mackay today, it was already 27 deg C when I got up this morning and it'll be high 20s or 30 as the sun goes down.

All those stories of curtains fading and cows not milking are just the Queenslanders taking the urine out of the southern states.

Don't tell Old Steve that he just gets hotter one hour earlier.  It might make him hot under the collar.    8)
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
