I know the British Times Berona - they are easy because they are on the boards and me being 13 hours ahead as well - I just get a bit lost with the Ozzie times - we gain two hours when we go to Victoria and then when we cross over into South Australia we gain another stupid 1/2 an hour. Which seemed crazy as we were travelling in a straight line north at the time up through Mt Gambier. When we are in Oz we keep one cellphone on NZ time and one on Oz time. We wake up NZ time and that gives us a good start for the day in Aussie - and also gives us a bit of a lie in. We pack a lot of sights and goings on in one day... hate to miss something. |

I must leave you for now, too. I have to report to my GP now that she has had time to get her instructions from the specialists. Time for my 'flu needle anyway. Sleep well, Brits - have a nice day those of you on my side of the world. |

Not sure without looking it up, but I think we have three times zones in this country. When I worked for a place which had branches 'all over', we had the time difference written up on the wall in large letters. Otherwise, I don't have much to do with other states, except on here! I have become used to thinking of Allan as being 3 hours behind - but that will change to 2 hours on Sunday week because we go back an hour - but Western Oz elected not to have daylight saving (probably just to confuse us Easterners!). |

I know Allan comes on here early in the morning but that is all I know about WA. |

Persey, what more do you need to know about WA? |

Actually I do no more about WA - since my father was born there and my grandparents were married there. |

That should be quite easy to do Sue - Linda cannot fight back she is sitting on her hands. |

Australia is nearly 3000 miles wide. Three standard times, Unfortunately, daylight saving confuses things. WA decided last year that they didn"t want it any more. Queensland never had it, None of your wacky southern ideas here. Time calls on ABC Newsradio and ABC overnight are a hoot. |
