Time Difference

As a rule, eastern Australia is 10 hours in front of GMT (UTC) but with the UK's BST and Australia's DST and the government deciding to fiddle with the whole thing because they want to drive home in the light, it all gets very complicated.

So here it is in plain English.

• From the last sunday in March to the first sunday in April
  Australia is 10 hours in front of the UK.
• From the first sunday in April to the first sunday in October
  Australia is 9 hours in front of the UK.
• From the first sunday in October to the last sunday in October
  Australia is 10 hours in front of the UK.
• From the last sunday in October to the last sunday in March
  Australia is 11 hours in front of the UK.

Or, you can look at the times on the right, which is easier –––––––>
