Cellar Clock

Say you're having a pint with Sundae Girl and she disappears off Gabbly. Check the time here. Now you can determine who might show up if you soldier on.

this topic always confuses me. * Since we have people from far-flung corners, is there an optimum time window? Is there a time when it's slow for everyone?

*Since I can't count, dammit!

Thanks Griff. I did find another world clock. I like this one.

It's for simple people like me.

Then there are people like me who work 'normal' hours, but generally can only access the Cellar at home (darned boss actually wants me to work! )

skysidhe, that is a nice, simple one; thank you.
