Bring it on, I say
With the blackbirds in the backyard in full cry by 6:05 am (and possibly earlier), and darkness still falling so soon after 6:00 pm that it's impossible to do any work around the garden, or go for an after-dinner walk, I say it's time to bring forward daylight savings. Bugger this waiting till October nonsense, how about the first weekend of September. All this light before 7:00 am is basically wasted, and the birds are really annoying me with their happy chirps.
Meanwhile, the Hon. George Hawkins can't get into a Parliamentary elevator, and Tony Blair is finally on the way out, albeit in a protracted manner. Just quit man, nobody likes you. And the best comment I have read about the proposed local government merger(s) in Auckland was in yesterday's letters to the Herald editor. It was to the effect: "By how much will my rates be reduced, and how many unnecessary local government workers will be laid off? The answers I suspect are zero and zero." Hmmm, food for thought.
