I saved partway through to put my kids to bed - 1 hour is more likely my time

When you open a saved puzzle the clock continues from what it was at when you saved it. Of course, if you left the window open and didn't reload then you're right - it will keep ticking on. :)
So the thing to do is to save the puzzle and then close the window. Then when you continue the timer will continue from where it was when you saved.
I'm just explaining this because it's not obvious - it would probably be good to have a 'pause' button or some such, I guess.

I didn't realise that the timer kept going when the window was still open! Now I'm not sure of any of my times! :-( Oh well.... have to do them again then! :-)

The timer runs from when you first open the puzzle until you press Check Solution with the correct result. You can stop it, however, if you press Save and then close the window. When you re-open it it will continue from the point where you last pressed Save.
Hope this helps!
