Neat and this morning it was 22/2/22 2:22 am and tonight it will be 22:2 22/2/22 but that only works with the the way most of the world does dates. If you are a left-pondian who gets the day/month the wrong way around it won't work out the same way i.e. 2/22/22 just does not cut it! :doh: :lol:

I signed a bunch of paperwork yesterday (both physically and electronically) and I had no fewer than 3 occasions where I tried to write *way* too many 2s. I think I now hate the number 2.... :lol:

As in XXII/II/XXII? Hmm doesn't work as well somehow. However the left-pondian way seems slightly better in Roman numerals, II/XXII/XXII. :dunno:

If you'd waited two minutes and 22 seconds, it would have been 22:22.22 22/2/22.

The weather man on last night's TV couldn't help telling us that it was also 22°C at 2:22PM in Melbourne :doh:

You may not believe this, but I did Wordle on my mobile yesterday, and I got it on line 2.
I think I like doing it on the 'phone; I cracked it on line 2 again today.

Hi Mike,

On the phone, if you tap the "Share" button on and then select "copy" you can open the forum on your phone and paste the results in to your post. Certainly works that way on iPhone and i believe Android is similar.
