Cool. It has just occurred to me....

You guys set them back 1 hour and we just went forward one hour today today. This means EE comes to life at 9:00pm instead of 11:00pm.

Outstanding.

If you like Ouzo you want to get some Sambuca. It has a similar taste but is much nicer. It is definetly my favourite sprirt and the only one I actually like drinking straight.

Btw, Ouzo originates from Greece, Sambuca is Itallian.

DS. Man, did I feel like crap this morning when I woke at 4:00am errrr 5:00am.

My eyes were like two piss holes in the snow and I almost ran into a garbage truck on the way to work. Literally missed it by an inch.

I got back home 9 hours later and instantly passed out for two hours in an exhausted heap.

I am not a fan.

You guys all suck. I just realised there was an error in my calculations. Instead of seeing the Yankee presence here at 9:00pm like I expected, looks like the time for EE to come to life will be 1:00am.

Well bugger you dudes. You can all kiss my Aussie light saving ass if you think I am gunna start at 1:00 and burn my wick until 3:00 to enjoy the occasional laugh at Tommy..

Yeah you heard me.

Another pain in the hiney associated with daylight savings. Now when I drive to work I'm driving directly into the sun. It's that wicked sunlight that you get when the sun has just popped over the horizon and it's too low for the sun visor to help. It's also so bright that I can actually hear it laughing at my sunglasses. From now on I drive to work wearing a welding mask.
