What Harold had not understood about that Wednesday four weeks prior was that the time he received from his fellow commuter was in fact three full minutes later than the actual time and therefore three full minutes later than the time to which his watch and life had been previously said not the worst of errors.
四個星期前的那個星期三,哈羅德不明白的是,他從他的同伴那裡得到的時間實際上比實際時間整整晚了三分鐘,是以比他的手錶和生活以前說的時間整整晚了三分鐘,這不是最糟糕的錯誤。
