The outpourings of a deranged mind

Riddle

On Wednesday I am in January
On Thursday I am in March
On Friday I am in February

On Wednesday you are in January
On Thursday you are still in January
On Friday you are in February

It’s the same three days for both of us and they are consecutive. How can it be true?

    Perhaps because you have a meeting at Banca March on Thursday?

    Nice idea - not what I was looking for though.

    Is it March as in the place? Googlemaps has come up with a ton of them! :D

    What about the March on the way to Peterborough? You could be there on Thursday and yet it still be January!

    Well done to the pair of you :) Thought it up when I was on the train on the way through it.

    I’ve done that journey a few times. Seems to take forever.

    Colchester to Peterborough is only 2 hours which isn’t too bad, considering going via London is well over 2 and involves the underground.
