This would be ideal for my purposes. My office is right next door to my PhD supervisor. Unfortunately he is a very busy man and is often absent when I want to speak to him. Not only that - he is absent when his myriad of other students come by his office. They then turn to me... and time after time after sodding time I have to make guesses or just tell them that I don't know. |

1. Take a 'back in 5 minutes' sign. Place an ordinary kitchen timer over the 5. |
|
| |
2. Wind it up to '30' for a half-hour trip to the [bank/post office/pub]. |

3. Bob's your uncle. Jane's your aunt. |
