10-10-10 10:10

Phew - finally finished back-blipping from our holidays in Mallorca. They start here if you fancy a look. More to come on Flickr too.

Today had to be a quick one and it took less than a minute. Historically it was 10/10/2010 10:10 today so recorded the occasion with a mad dash around the house photographing all our clocks! Must have looked funny. So here's a montage of them all. And some interesting (or maybe not) facts about the number 10 taken largely from Wikipedia:

* The number of fingers and toes we (mostly) have
* The home of the PM
* The atomic number of neon
* The number of players in a mens Lacrosse team
* The Ten Commandments of Exodus 20:2-13 and Deuteronomy 5:6-17 are considered a cornerstone of Judaism and Christianity
* The number of violin sonatas composed by Ludwig van Beethoven
* Title of a Blake Edwards' 1979 film and a number of albums, including Pearl Jam
* The number of Provinces in Canada
* US Interstate 10 that runs from California to Florida
* The number of regions in Ghana
* The number of wickets required to be taken in Cricket by the bowling side for the batting side to be bowled out
* Under English law, when you reach the age of ten you can be convicted of a criminal offence if it is proved you knew that what you were doing was wrong (in Scotland this is true from age eight). Plus you could be detained 'at Her Majesty's pleasure' for a specific period, including a life sentence, if you are guilty of murder
