Western Australia is being asked to set their clocks forward 3 hours so we can watch the commonwealth games live with everyone else in Australia. It’s not going down to well here and I say leave the bloody time alone!
Could you imagine that? The sun goes down around 7pm and comes up around 6am here, so if we wound the clocks forward by 3 hours the sun would go down at 10pm and come up at 9am. I’m telling you, they’re just trying to fuck with Westies minds.
We should just find out how we can break Western Australia away from the rest of Australia and float down to chill with Antarctica. It will be a nice cool change from all this heat and we’ll get to play with snow. Then when the rest of Australia is ready to apologise for treating us wrongly, we might come back, but they’ll have to promise to make more concerts tour Western Australia.

Kitta, I’m really laughing my ass off over here! Where the hell did you get a map of Aus without the Northern Territory?? Especially on the internet.. i know it’s been aroun since longer than cyberspace!
You’d best be making me some funky bead stuff!!! AND… If you abdicate from Aus and move away… you’ll just become New Zealand! HAHAHHAAH

Hehe welcome to my world. I love that the sun goes down at like 8:30/9, You get a longgg day. It was quite weird when I went over to Perth, the times screwed me up a bit, haha.
But I agree that bands/musicians should tour there more, I can’t live without my concerts! My best friends moving over there in about 2 weeks. =[ She’s coming to Big Day Out with me as a last Melbourne concert thing, hehe.. Should be good..
Anyways, have a great weekend and take care. xoo

I loved it back home, sunrise at about 7am, sunset at about 7pm, all year round.
On the subject of home… as Ella pointed out… I was under the impression that I grew up in the Northern Territory, not South Australia. The “Google images” excuse is weak weak weak, yuo should’ve checked it 😛
Also, be thankful that artists actually go to Perth, the lack of reasonable music in Darwin is appaling, although some excellent local talent always included Darwin on their tours (Regurgitator, Silverchair, Powderfinger).
Oh yeh and you don’t have to put up with croc dundee stereotypes 😛

Being a resident in WA, how come i haven’t heard anything about this winding forward time thing? It’s a joke surely, seeing the lympic games, being far bigger than the commonwealth games, did not require any clock changes….
but succession from the rest of Australia would be a lovely thing. I mean, what’s australia without all that ore, gold and natural gas huh?
what we need is some shovels and the world’s biggest collection of pool floaties to keep the whole thing buoyant…

Dear Kitta, welcome to the wonderful world of politics. Anyway whats the deal with Western Aussies watching the games a couple of hours later? Big whoop…it doesn’t even matter.
tell you what…run for office for western aus. and suggest that during every world cup, be it Cricket (Aus. wins), rugby (Aus. wins) or football (England doesn’t win) the whole world changes your clocks to be exactly the same, so we can all watch it at the same time. It’ll be in Germany in 2006, so youll be watching a 9pm match as the sun is rising. Thats perfectly logical innit? lol.. 😛

Kitta, can South Australia come with you? The real part I mean? I think the Victorian Government is trying to take over Australia…grrrr
But, whoever said Adelaide doesn’t get musicians is almost totally right, Korn doesn’t realise that Australia is comprised of more than 3 states, but their tourmates are coming here (though not going to Perth or Darwin).
The live music scene probably doesn’t do as well cause for some reason, touring bands don’t think it’s feasible to go to the smaller states – 😦
