Any guesses at the time to meet up?

Normally we meet up at 6.10am to go to work but he wants to go to work



30 minutes earlier tomorrow so he can leave work 30 minutes earlier to get home for an appointment.

I am happy to do that - but he wants to know the new meeting time.



Any sarcastic suggestions are welcome.


He's worked out that, if you meet 25 minutes earlier, that will be fine, as there will be less traffic then, and the journey will be 5 mins faster?

The time of the journey is usually decided on how fast I want to drive and how many pillocks get in my way.

ZZOOMM drivers are the biggest pillocks I have met on the A1 so far.

Tell him 4:30 am and leave him waiting for an hour. Also tell him the clocks change and he needs to put his clock forward by one hour before going to bed.

Tell him you're going to work at the usual time and he can take 30 mins off his lunch and leave early.

He's not been installing street lights has he?

I'd have thought it was a simple sum, would you not? Brian

Until you meat the bin truck doing the recycling who love taking up the whole road while they stroll about wheeling bins about whistling. Brian

Why would ultra fast broadband suppliers be particularly slow drivers? :)

not politic if it would mean the chap is denied his entitlement to a 20 minute break (30 minutes if under 18).

And not practicable if the arrangement involves Adam providing transport in both directions.

Then, Adam would also need to shorten his lunch break by half an hour. Maybe, they only take a half hour break anyway?

Nice job. :)

Perhaps he didn't have a calculator with him.

Half an hour earlier should do it.

I didn't say they were slow - I said they were poor

Apart from he was later so I left him.

Swears blind he was there from 5.30, which is the time I turned up and I have a dashcam to show he was not there and a tracked van to show where I was and at what time.

I send him a text message to say I was leaving - he replied back saying he was there so I called him - no answer - probably because if he answered it would have given the game away that we was on the M62 and late.

It is a 30 minute unpaid lunch break we have.

He must have, on his phone.

It took me 9 miles to get past him - he he speeded up and slowed down between speeds of 70 MPH to 80 MPH in the RHL and never went past 80MPH until I overtook him - then he speeded up

Which Time Band to synchronise watches on ?
