Totally forgot about daylight savings. Was wondering why a Freelancer wasn't around at 11. Not everyone does daylight savings... I'm an idiot!

If they're in Perth, sorry about that. I did vote in favour of Daylight Savings for both of the referendums we've had on the question. It seems I'm in the minority over here on that topic. It's probably because that extra daylight fades the curtains or confuses the cows or something.

Nah, they're in the Philippines, which when I looked it up they ended DST in 2023 and is no longer using it. So they'll have to start an hour earlier tomorrow (shame I can't start early and end early).

I don't mind DST, though it does make things a bit confusing towards the start and end of it.
