Title: My new clock
Post by: Nick on April 16, 2011, 05:08:23 PM: My big sis brought a clock with her. It was a silver wedding present to my parents. WHich makes it nearly 50 years old. It looks a bit retro.

Here:

As she left, she said, "I thought I would give it to you cos the ticking really annoys me." rubschin:

It is driving me mad, it sounds like fucking Big Ben cussing:
