Burgs posted a poll on this last year here - lets see how the numbers stack up this time around...
Sorry I haven't changed my mind after the last 4 trials.
I only enjoy daylight savings so much because TLH does!!
always said daylight saving is of no real value for places of less than 30 lattitude.
Most of WA gets little benefit.
Generally is 'costs' WA in additional power consumption.
Keep it in those cold, wet, north european places (that can't play sport).
Can we have a spell check on the poll thanks Coach :)
i dont like it but we have to put up with it for 2 more seasons so im trying to use it well.
we could start a riot and protest if we get sick of it.
i think ppl with young kids will agree that its stupid as well as the ppl who are stuck getting up in the dark all year round as a result
not to bad for most people, BAD for dairy farmers!!!!! Have had 32 years of DLS in NZ and you get used to it and in summer expect it.
It's wonderful, fantastic & an excellent idea.
For those that don't agree, answer these questions:
- what's wrong with getting up in the dark?
- kids go to bed when you tell them, not when it's dark (or at least they do in every other country!)
- who wants to get up at 4.30am to exercise? The only exercise that should be done at that time is to roll over & nudge your partner!!!!
I agree, daylight savings is a great thing, especially this year now that i've changed jobs and dont get up at 4:30am any more :D West Aussies really need to lose the small country town (espeacilly Perth) mentality that has and will continue to plague this state, join the 21st century or Dullsville will reign forever. Now that I work in an office 8 till 4 the extra hour will be great, espeacilly on tuesday and thursday for cricket training
i just had a look at the the poll from last and was wondering if the were any swinging voters Coach???
it great! it was light at 6.20am.....
I hate getting up when its cool in the mornings but usually i like having that little bit of sunshine to revel in at the end of the day...im undecided...however i don't like the argument that we need to adopt daylight savings to avoid being a backward state, what's so backwards about not having it...just because most of the Eastern states have it????
lots of people, have you ever got up at 5 and had a look. i would rather sun at 5 in the morning with no wind, no cars and no noise and good waves then 50000 people driving home from work, overcast winds and crap waves at the beach at 8/9 at night.Quote:

LOVE DLS.
If you know TLH then you know he is about as happy with daylight saving as he would be if you sh*t in his sandwiches....
But i love DLS, more time to enjoy the evenings....
All I have to say is
:fight: :hammer: :angry: :burnmad: :protest: :pccrash: :upyours: :gritteef:
This is my veiw of daylight savings
