The going joke here was the curtains faded mode rapidly. We have three
states and an island state that toy with their time pieces twice a year,
minimum. Oh, the fun!
My sister who lives in Adelaide (South Australia) is normally a half-hour
behind Queensland (my loc.) but DST puts her a half-hour ahead in summer.
Hardly normal, hey. I love 'listenin'g to her mental gyrations when she
calls me. ;)
Cheers,
