I just recently finished a redecoration of my kitchen, I wish you could see it, very lovely.
There was this funny kind of wall space that I decided to use up as two large bulletin boards with a blackboard (for grocery list) in between. I decided to put above this configuration several clocks set to different times around the world. Places I like to visit, places I sometimes call, and so on.
While I am familiar with the time difference thing, (I have travelled to most of these spots), it always hurts my head, and I am never certain I’ve got it just right.
So it’s all been together for a few days now, I even have the name plates ready, but the thought of figuring it all out just makes my head spin.
Besides that though, I really want to be certain it’s right, which, if I do it, won’t be the case.
Then it occured to me to consult the straight dope, you’re the smartest people I know, my highest authority. If you would only lend me your help I could set the clocks and confidently stand my ground when challenged by my husbands idiot friends.
How about it? Feel up to the challenge?
There are five clocks, but one is set to where I live, lovely London, Ontario Canada (same time zone as Toronto).
So, if it’s midnight where I am, what time is it in these cities?
Paris, France
Bangkok, Thailand
Singapore
Brisbane, Australia
Don’t get me wrong, I might be able to figure it out myself----eventually, but the chance of me getting it right seems pretty slim.
I bow to your superior knowledge, and bless you for your help. May heaven’s finest blessings shower down upon you.
Thank you again,
Peace
