Time(d) Travel.

Are you remembering that you’ll gain a day overall? Both Fogg, and Michael Palin following in his footsteps, forgot.

It’s annoying because you lose an hour every time you cross a time zone. If you travel 240 miles to the east you lose 15 minutes in that day. Every morning at eight o’clock my team put their watches back to try and incrementally lose time as we go, which means basically we have to treat every day like it’s 23 hours 45 minutes.
