It would make a 2 hour time difference when travelling to the Alps. It would be possible to get an early flight and have an early lunch up on the hill. Does anyone have any ideas how this could be acheived. Would it be worth starting a campaign.

Poor Frosty. He's now had 9 replies in 50 minutes, but still no one has answered his question.
Yes, Frosty, I do believe it would be worth starting a campaign. Maybe an advertising campaign.
Could you personally appear on TV, spinning a globe the wrong way and making interesting 'space comments' like Sir Patrick Moore?

Are you Irish? My long departed Irish grandfather used to say that, but the question was "how many apples in a barrel of pears?". I've never heard it again until now.

I recall seeing a play on the BBC donkeys' years ago, where England was not half an offshore island, but roughly where the Baltic states are situated. All I remember is that the Russians invaded and hanged the mayor of Carlisle.

But Ise would have to get up v. early for his conferences & ski in the afternoon ?
Would gender roles reverse along with the north/south pole ? = have I got enough shoes ?
|

You know it makes sense.
|
Isn't the North pole heading south "any minute now" ? - I seem to recall a discussion on a magnetic flip expected soon.
So if the Earth is to be upside down, will that help?
As an aside, the Polar bears will still have to live in the Arctic, because that is Greek for bear, ie Arctic = "where the bears are", so that will now be classifed as the South Pole, and thus, finally, they will be able to eat the penguins...[with or without wrappers before someone does that joke].
