How Do You State The Time ?
Arising as a result of something which arose in the Cluechain thread, it got me wondering how you express the time (say someone stops you in the street and asks you).
You check your digital watch and it says 14:55.
Do you reply :-
* Two fifty five
* Fourteen fifty five
* Five to three
* Almost 3 o'clock
