Sounds dumb but when the clocks go forward tomorrow how does it affect how i work out what time it is in Australia??

Add 1 hour less than you used to:

Areas using Western Standard Time (e.g. Perth) will only be 7 hours ahead of us, instead of 8.

Areas using Central Summer (Daylight) Time (e.g. Adelaide) will be 9 hrs 30 mins ahead of us, instead of 10 hrs 30 mins BUT ONLY UNTIL 02/04/06. (Thereafter these areas revert to Central Standard Time. These areas will then be 8 hrs 30 mins ahead of us).

Areas using Eastern Summer (Daylight) Time (e.g. Melbourne, Hobart, Canberra, Sydney) will be 9 hrs 30 mins ahead of us instead of 10 hrs 30 mins BUT ONLY UNTIL 02/04/06. Thereafter these areas revert to Eastern Standard Time. These areas will then be 8 hrs 30 mins ahead of us).

The change has been delayed because of the Commonwealth games.
