Then you would also have to indicate time of day, weather conditions and who is driving. We can get to my in-laws in 50 minutes or 3.5 hours. ( I hope to never replicate either.)

And maybe we can measure time in distance . "Whats the clock ? It is 500 meters or 2/5 of a mile. "

No matter how measured - I am hoping you’re far away from making important decisions.

You should go to Scotland. "Where's the nearest Tescos?" "Ah..its just 5 minutes up the road" 🤣🤣😎

You've got a problem then. Time isn't a constant. It changes with your speed. Whereas kilometres and mile's are. So I guess you don't have a solid understanding of that measurement either!

Time is not a unit of distance. Kilometres are. How long xyz kilometres will take will depend on traffic, weather, season... you just cannot say that something is so and so many minutes or hours away.

I once hiked in Patagonia in Chile, in complete wilderness. You are on your own and hike to a hut where you can sleep. The map said 5 hours from the lake, where we were dropped off in the late morning, to the hut. We arrived in the evening in complete darkness and wondered whether the routes had been run by Olympians. After all, time is probably the worst indicator of distance. 😂

I thought Big Mac's was the only true measure of distance.

Ah. A smart arse who thinks they are clever. I never read people's biogs, but deal with the post in real time.
