There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default Shamlessly stolen from Newsround this morning...

The kids were watching Newsround over breakfast this morning & I caught this...

Did you know that at 2 minutes and 3 seconds past past 1 this morning it was...

01:02:03:04:05:06

As in 1:02:03am on the 4th May 2006

This phenomena won't happen again for another 72 years (apparently )

Yes, I am bored

eh???

In 72 years it will be 2078. So how do they work that out? 01:02:03 04:05:78 doesnt quite work

Surely 100 years to 2106 will be the next time this happens.

But then Im having another dumb day so Ive probably missed the obvious again.

01:02:03 04:56:78, maybe?

or, in a more serious tone, anything the likes of

01:23:04 05:06:78
01:02:34 05:06:78

or any other combination...

Yep, I'm even more bored now.

Thankyou.

It was the inconsistency in using the 0 in front of numbers that threw me.
