Record clocks

[Skip]

I'm torn, I can't decide whether to hang a World of Frank Chacksfield or The World Of Military Bands volume 2 clock over my mantelpiece

I've always wondered who bought these and now I'm even more puzzled. I'm asking myself if the shop owner just takes the same clock movement and photographs each record or have they got a different movement in each one. The mind boggles.

They are so cheap like 1.99 for ten or something like that if you order from China. Dare say that works out even money if you buy 100 of the things. However definitely 'Chacksfield' who was a pointless answer on 'Pointless Celebrities' the other day, well one of his songs anyway. I'm ashamed I didn't know the answer

Has anyone ever seen a record clock in someone's house?

I think someone on here bought a Niagara s/t watch from spain once.Even included the cover if I remember correctly.

Gingham Kitchen and I happened to have a drink with a couple who had just bought a load of picture discs from Chesterfield market and were planning on turning them into clocks. There was an erotic atmosphere of conspiracy in the air.

Was there a link between the clock project and the atmosphere?

It was like a secret money making scheme was being shared (making clocks from Take That picture discs), accompanied by a revelation of the sexual secrets that fuelled the relationship.

But that happens most of the time I see Gingham Kitchen.

It's a curse. Apologies to all I met in London recently who can no longer kiss their partners without thinking of me.

They are horrible gifts when you think about it.
the vinyl says "You are old..." and the clock says "...and you are getting older."

The ways of you old-country sophisticates are beyond me.

I'm off to tend to my sheep.

Dodgy bleached blond hair or not Barlow would still look the biggest twonk on that record, he's the only one who looks unembarrassed. Its tory, tax fiddling Barlow o clock! Gawd I feel dirty now.

I've been waiting for guy to come and take my by the minute hand.

You could just buy a clock, glue a record to it, then glue some buttons around the outside, downcycled I'd call it:

Almost as bad as these terrible bags. For some reason the madrid fleamarket has dozens of them. I've never seen anyone walking around with one.
