things that make time go faster....

  1. I've just 'lost' about 2 hours trying to set a website up for the wife's new business venture. admittedly the couple of glasses of wine greased the wheels a little but not sufficient to explain where two hours disappeared to.

    It got me thinking;- what else causes you to question Mr Einstein's theories. Some of my suggestions

    1. Time passing faster than expected/wanted
    Garage Time
    Pub Time
    Track Day time
    vw time
    holidays
    IKEA (just walking through the door makes you lose about 3 hrs)
    sleep

    2. Time going slower than wanted/expected
    Anything to do with work
    train/plane journeys
    watching strictly, the x-factor or any other Marmitee TV series
    mother-in-law visits
    gardening

    there must be more!

  3. When refurbing and painting components off the bus
    I sort of get in the zone and hours can fly by

    Waiting for a delivery from a courrier and time ticks over ever so slow

    Pub time is a law unto itself and ive no idea how you can go from your first drink at 8pm and the next thing its kicking out time

    A long piece of insulated cable. Light and radio waves travels faster through air than down the wire. Every few years some numpty discovers faster than light travel using a long piece of wire in a creatively stupid way.

  12. A few years ago an american medical boffin "discovered" that Goretex was brilliant for certain operations, where grafts and the like were required. Being inert, no rejection issues and breathable. Mr Gore was a bit ahead of him, as that was what he developed it for in the 1st.
     
  13. Being underground seems to make time fly by

    Doing something you enjoy and is a good challenge gives time the appearance of speeding by.

    Last night i had three pizzas to cook, home made, and the first two cooked in what seemed like no time, at about 8 mins each. Then i told our mates to sit in the other room at the table while i finished the last one, and that one must have taken half an hour to cook.
