Smile Time differences and dialing codes

Found good link a while ago and have used loads since - takes a while for you to get it right without thinking and this way you can check before you do it ...

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/dialingcodes.html

simply put in where you're ringing from and to and then the phone number as would be written locally and it works out the rest for you!

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock

and then with this one you put where you are and where you need to know time for and hey presto it tells you - or even if you want to ring 10am their time it'll work it back you! I know we use this a lot now and probably a lot to start with when we get there

Theres something eerily morbid about watching a countdown in seconds....its like watching your life disappear by the second.
