I didn't know you were Muslim
A quick look at the wiki article doesn't give me an answer for your timing questions, but I imagine it's the 'eating during daylight hours' bit that's important, rather than the timezone.

I'm not
But I've always been impressed at their control power, so I've decided to try this year. I'm drinking water, though, I'm not silly.

However, I keep thinking I should have tried a year that it was in winter.

Fair enough!
Then if you're doing it for the challenge, go from sunrise to sunset.

I'm thinking that
Although I need to go to bed early and get up early as well, which means that I wouldn't be able to eat at all for the whole month. I think I'll count 8pm as night, as usually I have tea at 6.

A guy I used to work with
observed Ramadan very strictly. He ended up doing a 1-year stint in Sweden, you can imagine his relief when it fell in winter that year.

My muslim friend has a radio that receives
broadcasts from the mosque giving the official word when its ok to eat.
It is dependent on where you are, not mecca.
I'm sure you can check online somewhere.

In fact, I bet there is an ap for that.
