This Year Is Longer Than Last Year

[joggerjayne]

So, according to today's paper, we get a bit of a lie in this year.

To make up for the slightly slowing rotation of the Earth, an extra second will be added to our time at the end of the day on 30th June.

So, on 1st July, we can all have a bit of a lie in.

I saw that. I've no idea what to do with myself.

Times like this I wish the mrs hadn't run off.

I suppose it's nice that the planet is going to slow down in summer rather than winter. Though Australians will probably be disappointed.

Can I have the extra second this weekend instead?

[joggerjayne]

If it slows down too much, won't we all fall into Space?

I can tell that you don't watch QI, JJ, otherwise you'd know that's not true ;-)

[Svejk]

I don't think it would have a good outcome if it stopped.

[Arksided]

I'm quite looking forward to it.

If you are working night shift I hope you get the extra pay you will have earned.
