Stopwatch problems

Post by tangy »

Hello, I am baffled on how to change the time on my stopwatch to show BST, it is still in GMT as I cannot work out which buttons to press to alter it!

It is the usual grey stopwatch most of "us" carry on Tube challenges

Just take the battery out, wait until midnight and put it back in again.

We do.

Which is why we know that some age-old techniques (such as smacking something against a wall) are the most effective.

And I find the words Can't Understand New Technology very useful when talking to people who go and on and on about things like that! :twisted:

consult the istruction leaflet, failing this press a few buttons at random and I'm sure you'll figure it out! :)
One day I shall return!

That is exactly what I did in the end, pressed the buttons in a logical way until the desired result was achieved.
