Not sure if I should have put this in chat but it's kind of a win?! Iv been selected to be a contestant on Hallam FM 'Locked Up' I'm absolutely terrified, I have to go live on air on Monday & then il be locked in a glass box with earphones & a blind fold for an hour. I have to guess when the hour is up, I have a minute either side & if I guess right il win 1,000 meadowhall voucher!! Any tips peeps, I know I shudnt have entered but I wanted to have a go but I'm terrible at time keeping lol. Please be kind 😁

Have a go at counting for an hour and see where you get to. Then do it again until by Monday you know how to count an hour.Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change0 -

Maybe you could choose a song that you know all the words and tune for, then time how long it takes you to sing it through in your head. Then you can work out how many times you need to run through it to make up an hour. You could keep count on your fingers!
And if you mess up, don't worry, just think of the great story you'll have to tell!0 -
