I just hire a programmer who lives in Cambridge.

Since daylight savings stopped in the UK and started in Victoria there is now an 11 hours difference in the time zones.

So if I wish to chat with the bloke on Skype at lunchtime in the UK it is 11:00PM over here.

Have I missed something? Daylight saving stopped in the UK? I know they were talking about it, didn't realise it had happened - or has it??
