Countdowns, age and time
Count the days until any date, work out exactly how old you are, check the time in any city, and find this week's number.
Four everyday time questions, each with its own set of pages: how long until a date, how old someone is, what time it is somewhere else, and which week of the year we are in. The figures are worked out on the server so they are correct when the page loads, and the countdowns and clocks then tick along live in your browser.

Frequently asked questions
How many days until Christmas?
The countdown pages here update every day. Open the days-until-Christmas page for a live figure, or use the table below for the popular dates.
How do I work out my exact age?
The "born in" pages turn a birth year into the age you turn this year and the milestone years ahead. For an exact age to the day, TempoLife's date calculator does the arithmetic.
What week number is it?
Europe uses ISO 8601 week numbers, where week 1 is the week containing the first Thursday of the year and weeks start on Monday. The week-number page shows the current week.
Why does the time abroad shift by an hour sometimes?
Daylight saving time starts and ends on different dates in different regions, so the gap between two cities can change by an hour for a few weeks each spring and autumn. The city pages use live time-zone rules.
