I've always thought they should stop doing it in the UK. I gather it was done during the war to try and get as much daylight into the working hours as possible, because you had to avoid using lights. So it seems a bit obsolete to me. Seems strange that they should start clock changing in Oz now, as there seems to be no real reason for it.

I think the annoying thing for me is trying to get young children to change their body clocks everytime the clocks change.
