Sorry to say but I sense something fishy in your pictures bro! First, you start with saying 4th trip of the year, fine! It's just the end of June and 4 trips in 6 months? Doesn't it sound little too much? Especially if you were a student going to college from January until May before the summer started, if you are in USA.. or even anywhere in Europe?

Second, I watched all these wall clocks carefully..both of them that you have posted. In the first picture, you said the time in Kathmandu clock was 5:50 and that the time in Edinburgh was 10:45. Remember, during the summer, I mean around this time of the year, when its 5:50 in Nepal, the Edinburgh time will be 11:05. So, you are pretty confused even when you make up the story. Next, look at these clocks..how can it be 4:40 in New York when it's 5:50 in Kathmandu at this time of the year? Get deeper, how can it be 4:48 in Los Angeles when it's 4:40 in New york? And in your second picture of the clocks, the Kathmandu clock moved and is showing about 6:30, and the Edinburgh clock is still stopping at 10:45; how is it possible? You mean to say the Scottish people are so poor that they would rather use a functioning battery for Kathmandu clock and would use a completely drained off battery for the Edinburgh clock, that is, for the clock of their own country? I think that usually happens in the reception/lobby of some 2 star hotels in our own Kathmandu, where only the Kathmandu clock functions properly.

What I feel is, you collected these pictures somehow and presented an arrogant story here trying to fool us with your 4TH TRIP OF THIS YEAR (IN 6 MONTHS). My perception is, when the clock pictures were taken, it was still 6:30 in Kathmandu and in the first picture you decieved yourself with the second-arm of the clock with the minute-arm when presenting us with a fake story. It becomes obvious if you look carefully the second picture of the clocks. In the first one, the zoom was poor, and the second arm, which is at :50 seemed like the minute arm to your eyes and you failed to visualize the hour arm properly. So if you omit the hour arm for Kathmandu clock in your second picture, it would feel like 5:50.
