That reminds me, must check the strontium level in my main clock in the kitchen.


Clocks and time move more slowly  with speed. The clocks on the ISS measure time more slowly than those down on Earth.

Travel at very close to the speed of light and time almost stops completely.

have you noticed the days just whizz by?  ;D ;D

Time travel to the future is science fact rather than science fiction.

All we need is more speed. :)

70% of light speed will make a big dent in time travel to the future. :)

Miffed to discover that my Jag needed a manual clock update. :(

Same here.......along with a driving mirror that doesn't move with the seats like an Omega. :-X

I've discovered that the milk float shows the time from my phone on the entertainment screen when that's plugged in, but the car's own clock on the instrument binnacle. This confused me more than it should have this morning.  ::)

Welcome to my world.  Apparently, according to the Jag forums, its petty to suggest this is a step backwards, as apparently the dealer can set it for you.


I'd adjust the time on mine, but it needs some more electricity first...

That sounds about right for many Jag owners..... :-\

I've got to see if the warranty covers the crappy TPMS which I can't switch off or disable. >:(

I discovered yesterday that my ML's clock was set to German time & manual set ..... it's now set to UK time zone & auto update.

I'll let you know in Spring if it auto sets to BST  ::)

As could the RDS radio, or the DAB radio, or the cellular module, or the GPS receiver, with just a couple of extra lines of code. ::)
