“Can I #borrow some thyme?” It was the new neighbour.
“Sure... let me check my spice rack.”
“No, not the herb. Time. An hour should do.”
“You need my help for an hour?” I asked, puzzled.

OK, weird neighbour. I glanced at the kitchen clock. 9:15, how could that be? It had just gone 8 when he knocked. Had I dozed off?
I spent the morning busily preparing for the meeting. I was all set when the boss came in and asked me to prepare something else.
“You must be joking! The meeting is in 20 minutes!”
“No, it’s in an hour and 20 minutes, at 12 noon. Good news, it looks like you gained an hour!”
