Ask Captain Mainwaring what method he prefers

Stuck up? Or simply pompous prat? Like a spotty anoraked scout leader?

Love the word 'timepiece'.[url=http://www.hallerevans.com/auctions/13-07_prev.htmPlenty of marvellous examples up for grabs tomorrow near Hull.[/url Proper craftsmanship.

There'll be a few ringpieces on show as well if you pull into that lay-by in Coniston.

Nah, work involves times, schedules etc etc, been doing it so long it's all i use.

Ah, you know it. Action, er, auction starts at 12 noon, you'll note.

Don't most people put a digital clock/watch in 24hr mode? Thought it was the norm, now.

I had one of those cube clocks with the twisty corners, once. Bit weird at first but ok once used to it. Strangest clock I've ever seen was one of those binary ones. Don't think I'd ever suss it out enough to tell the time in one look without having to really study it.

Just realised ... most people have home entertainment stuff with a digital time display.
Also, a lot of people nowadays don't wear a watch, preferring the 24 hour time display on their mobile phone.
