    gosh that's a lot earlier than us in UK. I'll have to tell my DH who is in Wellington, otherwise he'll be late for the Rugby on Sunday evening!

    Thanks, NikT - it's good for those of us who might be phoning from elsewhere, too.

    All this clocks forward, clocks back, I'll call you in the morning (is that morning in NZ and evening in the UK or vice versa?) drives you round the twist. I was doing well with it on my regular calls to NZ until this week when I failed miserably by a whole 24 hrs!!

    So, when NZ puts their clocks forward this weekend that will be a 12 hour time difference until the UK puts their clocks back in October when it goes to 13, correct?

    Its the only time my Mum is happy when it is a 12 hour difference then she gets all confused with 13 or 11 hours
