Here in AZ we never change...and it does get confusing because I forget that everyone else still does.<br /><br />This was really a clever "D"!<br /><br />I enjoyed my stop here very much.<br /><br />A+Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462124067637610359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2857159910102323096.post-90420263237142652792010-10-17T04:36:48.647+02:002010-10-17T04:36:48.647+02:00The first time I was in Canada, I was like Thom, i...The first time I was in Canada, I was like Thom, in Borneo, we had no day light saving.

Thank goodness for micro chipping, the owner was found. <br /><br />Happy ending, almost, the Idiots who kidnapped/dogknapped him, left his to die with two other dead dogs. He suffered from epilectic fits.<br /><br />The owner was happy to see him, drove 4 hours to collect him. Slowly, the dog recognised the owner and his family, and his fits are under control.Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2857159910102323096.post-42896406484905843722010-10-15T22:24:30.177+02:002010-10-15T22:24:30.177+02:00...and as a former IT-consultant I'm very conc......and as a former IT-consultant I'm very concerned by all the costs it emerged for all the data systems to be able to handle the savings time!!!!!

It is such a bother not all being on the same time, especially on the border where we have a two big towns joined together (Coolangatta QLD and Tweed Heads NSW) They are called Twin Towns, It is a big seaside tourist area and it drives the business owners bonkers when there is an hours difference from one side of the town to the the other.diane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2857159910102323096.post-22270053816601930222010-10-14T22:49:16.484+02:002010-10-14T22:49:16.484+02:00I am with you on this.
