I'll never understand the problem with military time, you literally just have to know how to subtract 12. It's something you learn when you're about 5 years old. It's basically 2nd nature once you are old enough to care what time of day it is, you don't even have to think about it. There are 24 hours in a day.
@@ffotograffyddThere is a difference.. Military time uses a leading zero and doesn't have a colon, while 24 hour time uses a colon but not a leading zero. For example, 8 o'clock AM is shown as 0800 in military and 8:00 in 24 hour time. 8 PM would be 2000 (military) and 20:00 (24 hour
I am going to say I have every intention to prescribe to your channel but with me being a Health care support worker I do not receive the best off wages. I do possibly receive more than England 🏴?

Carers are expected to care without payments being a decent wage. The system is fucked up 😊
Seems that a lot of Americans are conditioned to a 'work more hours, buy more stuff' mentality, whereas most of the UK and Europe have a 'work hard during your contracted hours, then enjoy time with family, friends and seeing the world'.

Over half of the world uses military time especially at airports, train stations, buses etc. North America is one of a tiny minority of countries that commercially wash their eggs and this process strips the shell of its natural protective layer thereby needing the eggs to be kept refrigerated; the vast majority of countries don’t wash their eggs and they stay fresh at room temperature for weeks without the need for refrigeration.
The rationale is different for eggs. In the USA, to have cosmetically nice looking eggs in the superstores, they wash them. Meanwhile, the UK and a lot of Europe decided that the way to have cosmetically nice looking eggs in the superstores was to give the chickens nice enough conditions so that they don't get crap on their eggs.
@@AntonyTCurtis Plus, is it true that our hens are vaccinated against salmonella? Our dairy and beef cattle received vaccinations too, against a variety of bacteria which could otherwise affect their milk or meat... I guess pigs do too, and sheep / lambs?
@@AntonyTCurtis It's not cosmetic - it's because their animal husbandry regulations are so poor and they are not prevented from keeping hens standing and laying in their own faeces.

I never speak ‘military time’, which btw, is never how the UK describes it anyway. Fair enough, we’re all 24 hour clock savvy, but if someone asked me what the time was, and a digital timepiece said 13:45, I would say it was quarter to two.
yea you just merge them in your mind fairly easily as a kid.

Sunday roast for my family is chicken or beef or turkey which ever you prefer and then we’ll have roast potatoes,mashed potatoes, cauliflower, carrots, broccoli, sprouts, roasted onions, sausage wrapped in bacon, and plain sausage for other options and home-made Yorkshire puddings and gravy and mint sauce, apple sauce, horseradish sauce within the mashed potatoes its one of my fave meals ever from wales. 🏴🇺🇸

I go out every Sunday for a Sunday Roast Dinner. Its called a Carvery. You have a Choice of Beef .Pork .Turkey. You can mix or Match the Meats .Then a Selection of Vegetables. Mashed Potato .Roast potatoes .£ 12 .Its always Cooked perfectly.
You dont need to drink alcohol to enjoy socialising at the pub. Many pubs offer free soft drinks for the 'designated' driver these days. Sunday dinner and shops closing early is to enable families to spend time with each other, catching up on news while enjoying a delicious meal, which is often followed with a delicious hot or cold dessert. Rice pudding is a favourite of mine.
Some of my fave pub names : the Mole Trap (its a very tiny pub, very tiny), The Quiet woman, the sign outside is a beheaded tudor woman. The Bush, which is actually called the Jovial Colliers on its sign but Ive never heard anyone call it anything but the bush,
I get so cross when people say things like "English road/rules, lives/differences are "shocking". Outside of the US it's actually a derogatory word: - a car accident, murder, violence, attack - are "shocking". So when we see so many aspects of our lives described as "shocking" it sounds as if our whole culture is horrific!!
We do pretty much every Sunday we can, always have. I think the key point is you can go to almost any pub serving food and you'll be offered a Sunday roast as an option. Many you would have to book in advance as it's so popular. Never as good as at home, but none of the washing up.
some towns have no alcohol zones where you cannot drink in public or you get a fine, normally in aereas that have trouble with crime, but its left to individual councils to decide, like my town yuou can drink anywhere but next town down you cant drin in the town centre

I like her channel a lot & have subscribed to it for a few years 👍. One matter though, we never refer to time keeping as “military time”, instead we talk about the “24-hour clock”, which is very useful when travelling by train or plane, but in daily life we speak using a 12 hour clock, specifying morning or afternoon/evening or perhaps referring to “AM” or “PM” (short for ante/before and post/after meridian/midday), it’s not difficult 😉. A lot of the time it’s not even necessary to specify that, because if you arrange to meet someone at 2 or 4, it’s implicitly understood you’re referring to an afternoon meeting, as it’s unlikely you’ll be meeting so early in the morning. On the other hand if you arrange to meet someone at 8 or 9 etc, it’s probably necessary to specify if you’re talking about the morning or evening.
Not everyone drinks a lot! I rarely have a drink and hate the feeling of having had too much. Some people drink a lot...but Im pretty sure that is the case in the USA too

In the UK businesses have to give up to 28 paid days off you also get paid when you are sick and we try not to work at the weekends because that's always family time, its about time greedy American companies are made to treat and pay their workers better it's a disgrace.

How about being able to jump on a plane for $30 and be in Paris an hour later, 2 hours will get you to a dozen different countries.

America is only 300 years old you’re not gonna see a lot of history there like castles and cathedrals
There’s plenty of history, but they only count the history since Europeans arrived.
You could say that both Germany and Italy are a lot younger than that. The difference is the US doesn't appreciate 'old'. They tear down and rebuild all the time.
