Woo 6 months of the car clock being right!

The trick is that there's always one clock you forget about until it catches you out. I've sorted the microwave, given up on the cooker and... now where is it?

I'd just set all the clocks I don't care about to be very wrong so that I know to ignore them

Never bothered with the microwave. Damn thing will be 257 minutes out of sync by the end of the week somehow
