Weird...

[Mon Ami Mate]

Just nipped out to the shops on my bike. Got back to discover that evey single clock in the house has developed a simultaneous fault that has resulted in them all going forward three hours. Can anybody offer a rational explanation?

Did you go out for 3 hours?

But...the shop is only ten minutes up the road.

Funny thing is, I've just put the bike away in the garage and noticed that it has also been affected. The odometer seems to have acquired another 210 miles...

Apparently is happens if it is the first warm and sunny day for a while.

Happens to me too.

[stooz]

that explains how it went dark after popping out one morning, I thought it was a solar eclipse

Happenned to me yesterday

There was also a gradual chicken strip appearing all winter

Then it was gone

Yup, i've had that happen. There's no clock on my bike, so I have no way of knowing how long i've been gone without stopping to check on my mobile. At which time I generally call the girlfriend and say "I'm really sorry honey, there's no clock on my bike. Im about 120 miles away so theres a good chance I won't make tea in half an hour, but i'll be back as soon as I can".

I was also tootling about , there seemed be a lot (1 scamera van, 2 sets of 2 motorcycle bib's and a car at the guildford end of the A320 today), luckily I wasn't rushing as I was spending the day recurprating from falling off whilst parking outside St. Barts Hospital yesterday, stalled it whilst mounting the pavement to park.

Embarrasment factor 10 ;-p and me a professional motorcycle rider as of 4 days ago, oh the shame

how about a stick on clock?

I sellum...

[Mad Dave]

Hmm, i've often considered one of those but...

a)That would be my prime excuse obsolete

b)I'm not sure where I would be able to mount it - the bike is an unfaired Bandit! I'll have a look, maybe on the top yoke.

How much, including postage?
