    Time. How could I forget time. I switched my mobile to 24 hour format when I was there, and kept it that way after coming back so I don't have to get disoriented all over again when I go back.

    • I don't think this one is universal tbf, more so on mobile phones if anything. Ain't no one gonna be like "let's meet for tea and biscuits at preciselykalkal
    • thirteen hundred hours. Pip pip."kalkal
    • Uk websites use 24 hour format, and the train times are too. But come to think of it, I never heard a person say 13 hundred. They would just say meet me at 1.cherub
    • Honestly thought this one was an Americanism which we'd adopted, don't remember seeing this format much in the 90'skalkal
