Daylight savings time

Whoomp there it is. It was bound to happen, I can’t even count how many times I’ve whined about this. Kulula (Xhosa for free - from kululeka, freedom (correct me if i’m wrong (brackets in brackets :: kewl))) has decided to petition the Government to institute DST.

No not Diplomat Sanity Testing, however much we need that, i’m talking about Daylight Savings Time! The same daylight savings time they have in the U.S. the U.K and the bloodhound gang song.

Kulula has put together a petition and according to them, they hope to have everything in place by 1 Sept! Optomistic indeed, but alas they have my vote.

Buy in pepes, let’s change time as we know it…

Hectic..me & a collegue were just talking about having DST in SA.

I must be honest thought, I spent 14 yrs in Cape Town and I really doubt the Capetonians ability to be able to get their head around resetting their watches and stuff..

I hear you. But did you know that CT is a full 2 time zones west of JHB meaning that CT should at least be 2 hours behind Jozi. But in a practical sense it’d never hold.
