Abstract
This paper is concerned with exploring how participants mutually construct the intelligibility of their formulations of time in the course of their interactions : for example, with how it is that the co-participants to the above conversation could mutually orient to Wendy's mother's death at that time of life as not being untimely ? The paper will be divided into two parts. The first will be concerned with the fact that there are a variety of ways in which to formulate time and with how it is that a particular type of formulation of time is used to establish a mutually intelligible orientation to time by trading in a relationship between the parties. This furnishes a resource for the second part which will explicitly address the construction of the mutual intelligibility of time formulations in a course of interaction by describing how participants to talk may invoke a situatedly relevant calendar of events which is itself a methodical feature of the organisation of the activity it locates.
