I hate to tell you progressive and knowledgeable Queenslanders that you're wrong. But you're incorrect.How you work out were backward , the sun rises & sets the same time every day in Qld it's that other mob who think they are missing out on sunshine
The sun rises and sets at different times every day.
Between the winter solstice and summer solstice it rises earlier each day and sets later each day. Between the summer solstice and the winter solstice it does the opposite - it rises later each day and sets earlier.
You're right - better leave highly technical things like daylight saving to those in other states that understand them.

Pretty sure it was "Big Chief's" with a biggish obligatory Indian Head sign in the carpark
"Queensland not in drought" claims person from Canberra. That's truly wonderful for the country.

Liverpool city raceway (speedway) was always known and advertised as the place of pace from its opening in 1967 until its closure in 1989 I used to live about 1k from the track when i was a kid & was there most weekends, had some great times there growing up just down the road

We HAD daylight saving for a year back in '91 or thereabouts. I was working up the Cape and in the Gulf at the time. It was pretty harsh. There was a good reason it got voted out up here. In the Southern lattitudes it is fine (I like it down South), but we want less bloody sun up here in the evenings in Summer, not more. South East QLD would get away with it but it is a great big State.I hate to tell you progressive and knowledgeable Queenslanders that you're wrong. But you're incorrect.

Yep, that's what it was. They used to throw oil on the drive to watch the action as people left.

Off Topic!! This is supposed to be about daylight savings (or 70's eateries, or...whatever).
