The road closure signs around here have very wisely starting displaying start time of 11:59pm to avoid confusion.Jorge wrote:How does that change anything in this scenarioHiggs wrote:To avoid these sort of misunderstandings I will always go with 12:01pm.

I'm sitting on a park bench eating my lunch and a young guy came and put a plastic takeaway container full of seeds down in the lawn a bit in front of me and then came and sat on the other side of the bench. He keeps insisting that the pigeons are curious but I really don't think they care

i heated up a few steamed pork buns from costco
worked up an appetite after a brief step out to cast a few lines into the sea water
beautiful day and a very high tide due to celestial happenings
i caught one fluke, was only 14 inches so threw it back. was nice to get a bite though
the ocean is big and full of life
waves and love

If the sign said no water 10am to 1201pm it would have been correct, no?Jorge wrote:How does that change anything in this scenarioHiggs wrote:To avoid these sort of misunderstandings I will always go with 12:01pm.
