Problem Statement

One day I went for a walk in the morning at xx minutes past 5O5'O clock, where xx is a 2 digit number. When I returned, it was yy minutes past 6O6'O clock, and I noticed that (i) I walked for exactly xx minutes and (ii) yy was a 2 digit number obtained by reversing the digits of xx. How many minutes did I walk?
