The answer to the divisive problem of daylight savings is to extend the business hours throughout Australia in summer by an hour and let people have the choice of having the extra hour before work or after work to suite their own preference. Rostering could solve any problems of shortage of people to fill in any gaps in the coverage.

Well I must say I haven't missed it this year. In fact I think I've slept better than ever without the extended night light.

Yep, I am glad we in Queensland don't have it. Older people in NSW hate it.

I can't understand why anyone in the cities wouldn't like it.

I hated it in Tamworth NSW because it was such a long hot summer there. I didn't like it much in Cowra NSW either. It all tied in with having smaller children then and it was pretty hard. I have found people in SEQld tend to get up at 4 or 5am and go for a walk/swim at the beach or out here, just a walk in the bush.

I could not agree more! Especially at this time of year. Lived there for 5 years and it felt like a life sentence in hell.
