Now you see, I was only ever told "Time Manner Place" over and over 
and over again. Doing otherwise attracted red ink. I only studied 
German academically for four years and haven't done much grammar 
since, but you would think they'd de-emphasise the "wrong" if it's not 
and explain.

And people wonder why Brits aren't very good at languages! Is the 
state education system mangling them? ;-)
