Not a very productive day today, no mojo, hence the camera laid idle on the coffee table in front of me.
Had an appointment at the Dr's this afternoon for a few tests! While I was there, I had my flue' jab . Came home and dealt with a couple of phone calls and fell asleep.
I had no photo for 365 so I did some faffing on a photo of my clock to get a more authentic look. My grandmother bought this clock in a house sale when our minister moved from our Chapel to another calling. back in 1800's. At the moment I need to take it to a clockmaker to clean, as after winding it will not only go for 3-4 days instead of its usual 10 days. My father used to clean and oil it using a feather! and in the past I have done the same, but the latter years I have not been able to do it - I do miss the steady mellow tic-toc!
It’s a lovely clock Beryl…..I like the shape & balance of it very much. Something very restful about a ticking clock. Flu jab does knock you out sometimes!
It is a beautiful clock. David brought one home recently from our recycle centre and it is in the garage at the moment in need of repair. He loves working on old clocks, but I am not so sure I want it ticking and chiming in the house though if he does get it working.
Ditto what others have said. Lovely clock and lovely editing of the photo. When you are able do have it cleaned/repaired. Of course, hypocrite that I am, we have two beautiful mantel clocks on shelves in the living room that have needed repair for a long time.
