For those in different areas of the world you can use the 'pool' of time servers.
NTP Time Servers
It should be noted that the above time server is actually 'restricted'. See
TimeBNistGov
I would suggest using:
'uk.ntp.pool.org' (you can normally just replace the 'uk' with your country code)
Or just 'ntp.pool.org'
