I disagree ...

All days are 24 hours +/- fractions of milliseconds regardless. That is the amount of time it takes for the earth to rotate once based on observing any given point on the earth.

It is humans and their need to order things that create the concept of a clock and counting those hours.

We then adjust our clocks to count 24 hours, sometimes adding or subtracting an hour of that count in that count, as part of the concept of Daylight Saving Time (eg BST).

The odd second (a 'leap second') is a correction to our clocks to take into account the slightly uneven rotation of the earth, and the fact that one rotation is not exactly 24 hours.

The length of a day (ie one rotation of the earth) never changes (bar those odd milliseconds).


:p:p:p:p

I was reading somewhere that the human biological 'day' (as opposed to the chronographic one) is around 24 hours and 11 minutes long.

Just to confuse matters.

Hot cross buns for breakfast

I've been eating these too - but out of the freezer in an attempt to make space. I was going to throw them out but I toasted one and it was fine, so they won't be wasted after all. BB date Feb 2015 :eek:

Been to Aldi and S today, S have decs and gifts reduced but not by much, and wrap still on 3 for 2, but they were moving stock about this morning so I'll look out for more reductions tomorrow when I go for sprouts.

Good morning all. Has anyone who has used the Am3x offer in SuperD had emails overnight reminding them to use it, even when they have already?

Many thanks
