And rather than use pool.ntp.org, it is advisable and preferable
to see if there is a "national" pool to use instead,
eg for those living in Canuckistan, ca.pool.ntp.org
or for those in the hexagon, fr.pool.ntp.org, or those
in Deutschland, de.pool.ntp.org, etc etc.

Even Andorra has its own pool designation, ad.ntp.pool.org,
actually provided by somebody else at hover.com which 
also serves for the Faroe Islands and probably
quite a few others.

After all it makes sense to use the time servers
closest to your location in order to minimize delays.
