In the United Kingdom continental time can refer to the Central European Time zone or the 24-hour clock although the latter usage is now rare as use of the 24-hour clock has increased.
Famous quotes containing the word time:
“Terror is as much a part of the concept of truth as runniness is of the concept of jam. We wouldn’t like jam if it didn’t, by its very nature, ooze. We wouldn’t like truth if it wasn’t sticky, if, from time to time, it didn’t ooze blood.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
