Why not? It will still rain, wind and snow in the New World.

Hopefully we won't be obsessed with it as we are here in the South East , two blazing hot weeks in the summer so we mention how awful and hot it is to everyone we speak, and then the grey and damp and rain that we talk about the rest of the year .

 

Im sure in warmer climates they don't feel the need to check the weather every morning to see if the rain coat is needed.

 

Or perhaps this is just me lol

I think so. We’ll have to get ‘on-site’ to our teams for the massive clean up. Maybe after the 1000 years....

I was always curious about alarms, ancient people didn't need them, they woke when they woke, alarms are a modern contraption designed around modern living where people are made to get up for work at the expense of a fully completed sleep cycle, and we wonder why half if not more of the world relies on stimulants like coffee and energy drinks to function through the day.

True, maybe we’ll just be like “meet at the tent after daybreak.” We might just wake up naturally at the right time. I can’t imagine paradise without some lay-ins.

Some people like privacy, mind, for example the introverted.

No one is more introverted than myself. But I'm hoping that houses won't be build on top of each other like right now. I hope there will be enough space and plants like trees and bushes and flowering plants in between homes that will give privacy and no need for fences. 

Also, no peeping Toms 😂

I would say wrist watches .

The organisation has produced videos of paradise life where nobody wears wrist watches.

 

An example: Imagine the time

I think there may be some sort of clocks or watches in the new world, otherwise how would we arrive on time for the meetings or assemblies etc! 🤷🏻‍♀️

For the first time in 70 years I don't need a watch, every day is ground hog day and I have it memorized.

I love watches, though! I plan to loot a Cartier store and have the Tank Watch of my dreams!

 

I imagine that time... 😉

I've collected a few pocket watches, thought haven't added to that in some time.

I've worn a watch since I was eight years old. My arm doesn't feel right without one 😊

I once bought a fake Tag Heuer from a guy at work for $10, when the battery died I took it to a local jewelry store to get a new battery, the jeweler was a woman, when she asked me where did I buy the watch she wanted to buy her husband one but couldn't really afford it, I told her I bought it from a guy at work and that it was fake, she said "oh really, you could have fooled me "!

Clothing tags.  Specifically the brand identification and anti-theft tags that are attached using those nylon strings.

They'll be replaced by a set of scales that doesn't have numbers, just the word "perfect". 😄 (I'm gonna make those for people in the NW now...).

I have a gold watch that beonged to my mother that's mechanical. I suppose when she's resurrected she'll want it back!
