25:22 When I was at school, and we were playing a chasing game like Tag (which we called 'It' because the person who was chasing was called 'It') we could cross our fingers and say 'paxies'. This would mean we couldn't be tagged. I assume 'paxies' (pronounced 'pack-seas') was a corruption of the Latin "pax" meaning 'peace' or 'truce'.
