Exactly. I'm a late bird, and sometimes I'm glad it's not immediately obvious to everyone that I'm posting at 4am or something.

I know what our time is in relation to Mudcat time. At the moment it's 4.10pm Eastern Standard Time in Oz. At this time of the year we are 14 hours ahead of Mudcat time, but we change to daylight saving time the same weekend as your daylight saving ends, so in our summer months (your winter months) we are 16 hours ahead. I also know that the UK is 5 hours ahead of Mudcat time, so we are either 9 hours or 11 hours ahead of the UK. If this sounds confusing - it's perfectly clear to me and that's all that matters really.

There are a lot of different time zones, and that is further complicated by daylight saving at different times and in some places and not others. Even in Oz, we are 2 hours ahead of Western Australia, and even though Queensland, where Foolestroupe is, is in the same timezone as us, we are one hour ahead of them in summer because they don't have daylight saving and we do. At least their curtains don't fade as much ;-)

The forum is fine as it is, with people just working times out for themselves.
