No, I am not trying to take on the spammers at their own game and start selling them here[1], but whilst reading about dimensions I got sidetracked by the concept of measuring time in itself..
I’ve noticed a lot of people now use their mobile phone as a timekeeping device as well as for communications..
This is understandable as these days a phone displays a very accurate clock, often synchronised automatically to atomic time when your phone accesses the 3G/internet services)
But I still find it odd not to wear a watch…
In March my last digital watch which was already playing up gave up altogether when the clocks changed (it was one of those that has an MSF receiver [2]) and got stuck on some random time….
All I needed to do now was to wear a daft hat, start living in the middle of the forest with the dormice and hares and start inviting young girls to never-ending tea parties – but there seemed to be lots of people round here already doing this anyway so I just ended up getting another watch instead..
how many others here still wear a watch?
[1] although all I would probably have to do is ring one of my uncles and get a crate-load shipped over from Malaysia to the docks :laugh_at:
[2] this picks up the correct British time (slightly different to atomic time) from a radio transmitter up North somewhere..
