Tighter than two coats of paint
We do a lot of traveling with work. Upon ariving at a destination, if there is a town and my boss fancies a read of the paper, instead of spending a few pence on buying one, he goes into a Barbers shop, sits down, reads the paper for two minutes, looks at his watch and goes "Oh crap I thought it was only 11" or an hour earlier than what it is. Folds up the paper under his arm and walks out briskly.
