Graham is telling his friend Marco
about what happened yesterday:
“I woke up yesterday morning and
looked at my alarm clock. It said 2.15pm! I couldn’t believe it. I thought I
was late for work, so I jumped out of bed and ran into the bathroom. The clock
on the wall in there was two and a half hours ahead of the one in the bedroom.
It was very confusing! I had a shower then went downstairs. The clock in the
hall was an hour behind the one in the bathroom. When I went into the kitchen I
looked at the clock on the microwave, which was three and a quarter hours ahead
of the one in my bedroom. I found out later that day that my flatmate, Gordon,
had changed all the clocks in my house for a joke. He thought it was very
funny. In the living room the clock on the video said it was 3.30am, while in
the guest bedroom the clock on the wall next to the window was two hours and
twenty-five minutes slower than that. I went into the study and picked up my
watch. It was eight hours ahead of the one in the kitchen. I was due at work at
8.30am and didn’t want to be late. I went outside into the garden and looked in
at the window of my shed. The clock on the wall in there was three hours behind
my alarm clock. There was a postman walking past, but he didn’t know the time.
He said that when he left the sorting office an hour or two ago he thought it
was about six o’clock. In the end I phoned my brother Alan in
