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:
“The chuck wagon carries the food and utensils for the range kitchen. Man-at-the-pot is the first buckaroo to pick up the coffee pot when out with the chuck wagons. It becomes his duty to pour the coffee for the outfit. “Come and get her before I throw her out” is the time honored mess call.”
