Usually I consider we antipodeans are ahead of the curve.

Heh ... yes, I used to look at it that way, too.
Then, early one Saturday back in September 2016, I sat in my hotel room in Kirkwall (Orkneys) and listened to a radio broadcast (on my laptop) of the AFL Grand Final being played in Melbourne.
At the end of the game it occurred to me that those at the ground had to wait until around 5pm on Saturday afternoon to find out the result, whereas I knew the result at around 7.30 am on Saturday morning.
I felt very privileged ;-)
Cheers,
Rob
