The DST gap
When daylight saving changes don't line up, the gap between London and Auckland shifts.
Right now the gap is unusual: 12h instead of 11h or 13h.
Auckland is 12 hours ahead of London until Oct 25, when London clocks go back 1 hour. A recurring meeting set in one city's time lands at a different local time in the other until then.
Next change in 3 days (Oct 25, 2026): London clocks go back 1 hour, and the gap goes from 12h to 13h.
