6 and a half minutes

How long will the bus take to arrive? It should be here in about 4 minutes. It takes us 7 and a half minutes to run from the station back home and 5 and a half if we're real slick runners. The movie will show at fifty five minutes past four (well, five to five, if you must). The cab should come in every three and a half minutes during sundays and two and a half on the others.
For your pizza to be custom made, it will take 8 and a three fourth minutes (okay, 8 and a quarter to the next minute). It will be two minutes and 23 seconds before the traffic light changes to the “walker's green”. The journey to Leicester square from South Ken will take me approximately 23 minutes (not 23 and a half, you notice?)
We will go on a 8 and a quarter minute drive. Then in that remaining of the three fourth of a minute and until the next ten minutes and twelve seconds, we'll think of something else to do – apart from drive (oh yes, Im sure we're all thinking people). Then I have to rush to “hot yoga” class (where we do yoga at a higher room temperature than normal) and hold my breath for three quarters of six minutes. Texting my friends should then take me a couple of minutes (well, a couple or two or three more. You know. But its all timed )
Our meal times are exactly 20 minutes. I tea for precisely 16 minutes and 16 seconds. After which, we all resume our chores. At exactly 5, we shall stop doing these chores. We shall hang out for precisely forty minutes doing what ever you fancy, maybe hang out in the pub – wherein our drinks may not arrive within the known limit of 6 minutes and 4 seconds. Blimey, its so crowded! But we shall not complain about it – since we can save more time later.
We shall all be at work at 9 am and zero seconds. We shall leave our little nests at 7:30 and 0 seconds. We shall read that book or newspaper on the so-so-so-very cramped tube: well, it saves us time! We shall brush our teeth for 13 seconds (only), we shall spare a minute to take the umbrella.
A peck on the cheek: 6 seconds, a hug : 13 seconds, a handshake : 12 seconds. Exchanging pleasantaries: a good 7 and 2/3 minutes. The British sense of impeccable timing (with their humour, apart from everywhere else) and saving time : Timeless!
