Remember to put all your clocks, watches, mobile phones, computers, car stereos and body clocks forward one hour this weekend before you go to bed on Saturday.
From the Department of Internal Affairs:
New Zealand Daylight Saving commences on the last Sunday in September, when 2.00am becomes 3.00am, and ends on the first Sunday in April the following year, when 3.00am becomes 2.00am.
All sella auctions will be unaffected when we adjust the time on our servers.
