I'm one of those pre-digital people who still speaks the time as 'quarter to four"... "half past two" etc (rather than 3:45 or 2:30). Sometimes I can see the person listening doing a little mental translation in their head to realise what I'm saying.
Trying to switch to 24 hour time would probably make my head explode.
- What time is it?
- It's (long calculating pause..) twenty to twenty.
