Clock This!

According to the popular George Formby song of the 1930s: “If you want to know the time, ask a Policeman”. Today, of course, in our vastly more cosmopolitan age, you might well be addressing a ‘gendarme’, a ‘guardia’, a ‘politziotto’ or even a ‘ New York cop’. And, language difficulties apart, you might well get a different answer from each.

The time of course depends on where you are in the world and, while your American grandma might normally be delighted for you to telephone her at 4.30 in the afternoon, she might find it less of a pleasure at 4.30 in the morning! So, to avoid an ear-bashing (and perhaps also to safeguard your future inheritance), why not check out precisely what time it is in her neck of the woods.

A quick and accurate way of doing this is to visit our handy Reference section (http://www.webwatch2000.com/portal/reference/) where the wealth of useful information includes timeanddate.com’s ‘world clock’ site which gives accurate information for different time zones and major cities across the world.
