How experiences does a timekeeper have to be?

I am about to attempt a record for most serves in an hour. The rules state the 2 timekeepers have to experienced eg athletics club coaches, pe teachers etc and time to 0.01s. For this I was hoping to just have 2 phones accurate to 0.01s with 2 friends. Does anyone know how experienced the timekeepers actually have to be as pressings go and then shouting stop after an hour seems pretty simple especially when videoed anyway.

Is this a roundabout?

I have been coming over this junction for a few weeks assuming it to be a roundabout and giving way to the right as required. However it struck me today it has no signage to say it is a roundabout in any direction. All 4 junction have no signs just 2 faded arrows on the floor and a large faint circle in the middle of the junction. Is this official a roundabout or who has right of way if not?

How long to holiday in bilund

We would like to travel to Bilund in late August with a 7 year old and 3 year old. With flight timings we can either have 4 full days in Bilund or 6. Looking at doing legoland, legohouse, lalandia, wow and anything else good nearby. Would people recommend a full day for each of these (more or less). Are there good other things worth doing to fill 2 more days or best to keep to 4 days.
