Poor form! Do we really need a comment like this? No wonder our sport has few female participants.

Done!!! Most chicks that either Windsurf or Kitesurf are usually pretty forgiving regarding those types of comments. We know that both are male dominated sports so instead of making feminist comments we just do our best to out do the guys on the water!!! Hee hee hee

Hey Wormy, you can't expect common sense and politics to go hand in hand. Elmo's right, it was introduced here regardless of what the polls stated. Well when I say introduced I mean a three year trial, Three Years? are they expecting us to forget what we voted on?
Pay cuts to politicians, I say. Now thats what I call work choices[}:)][}:)]

Poor.... Yes
Misguided....Yes
Fool....Definately
Shaving....No, Got a beard, a while back my wife took of her rosey glass's and realized I was ugly, I've had a beard ever since.

My normal routine before daylight saving get up go to work come home load up go for a sail.

Since daylight saving has kicked in I only seem to be working longer hours.

It's either daylight saving or work which sucks.

I had no problems sailing without DLS.

Now where's my curtain catalogue

No can't expect poli's and common sense but I would of thought more of fellow windsurfers, as working longer hours, that for the individual to sort out,if they have the balls. thats whats called work choices!

Well, thats right Wormy, having the cohones. Trouble is most people don't want thier end of year performance review to show they'd rather be windsurfing than doing an extra hour of overtime to take advantage of D.L.S. Don't laugh, I've spoken to two people so far whose employers have requested they do just that. And we're talking about the disadvantaged, single mums and young people just out of school.
If you want to propose working arrangements with someone, it's always best to come from a position of strength, thus eliminating the latter.
Whereas it may work for you and me, I genuinely feel for people who have no bargaining power whatsoever. Cant always be pigeonholed to those with and those without balls
No offence intended

Why do they have to get up? Do you push them over?

Yeah point taken, I also feel for those poor suckers that have to work office hours and would love to have an extra hour of daylight for recreation after work.
