I am 38 and British and use 24hr clocks exclusively. This is also very common on the continent - the French nearly always use 24hr time for everything

Thinking on, yes, I think I'd noticed that. I love the country but I've never lived there full-time, though.

Indeed (French here). 12h time is still there in spoken language sometimes, but never in writing.
