Time script help sought!

I also notice that there is the is the 'datetime' module, which is new
to version 2.3, which i now have access to. My feeling is that this
will do much of what i want, but i can't get my head round the standard
library reference stuff

http://www.python.org/doc/lib/module-datetime.html

I don't have any texts with me either and it probably is too new to be
in the Python Standard Library book by Fredrik Lundh or the Python
Essential Reference by  David Beazley
