It's just an old-school way of counting to make sure you count a full second - I tend to say "1 Crocodile".

Sure your phone doesn't have a stop watch?

My Nokia (N70) is the same - I downloaded the following application and it works a treat: www .getjar .com /products /1893 /StopWatch (remove the spaces - can't post link as new user)

What Nokia is it? I downloaded one that works well and has split timing, although it's a bit awkward to use as you have to use the numberpad instead of the middle button.

It's a Nokia 6220 Classic. I think I may have downloaded that one referred to above.

On a separate note, has anyone ever conducted a visit to an opticians? I just accepted a job with Amber Arch.
