booyah! Today, I went to a trip to IKEA! (at least, the first time I remember: apparently I had been there before but at an younger age, or so my parents say =)) I went there with my sis who needed stuff to decorated and fill her new place & such and I: I needed a new clock.
Yesterday my clock just failed like *snap* just like that.. How weird is that?! tried replacing batteries but it would not go back to ticking any more, and trust me, my previous clock was supposed to go: tick tick...
Now, Now I have a shiny black one! whoop! it is really neat, and bigger then the old one =) hurrah!

Nice wander around sunny Chester this morning. Christo was there wrapping up the bridge gate and clock or it's being refurbished I guess.
Back today from the Clock Repairers after a full service, clean, chime repair and adjustments (which has taken four months). Works perfectly and the chime sounds as good as ever. I am in the process of adjusting the pendulum to set the right time according to the instructions given by City Clocks www.cityclocksdirect.com/ who did the job.
I'm very pleased with it!

I used an old Canon optical image stabilizer lens [EF-S 17-85mm 1:4-5.6 IS USM] on an EOS 450D DSLR. With exposures of up to a 1/4 of a second, most of the images had to be discarded, and the remainder are very "grainy" / "noisy", but the pictures at least form a sort of record of the event...
Owari clock needs some work. Laquered case pretty loose at all joints, broken trim. Movement dirty and not running.

The Boyd Heritage Museum; Bobcaygeon, Ontario.
This building (1955-1959) is named after Bernard Bracken, former chairman of the Financial Times, which was published here until the 1980s. The building was among the first post-war buildings in the City to be listed and its redevelopment retained the entire outside facade, including the elegant astronomical clock approximately 1 metre in diameter bearing at its centre a face of Winston Churchill, a personal friend of Bernard Bracken.
The work of Philip Bentham in gilt metal and enamel, it has echoes of the formality and sophistication of a dial. Embellished with Roman numerals, it depicts months of the year, signs of the zodiac and a sunburst motif.
Once again we have to go through the half-yearly rigmarole of re-setting the clocks. I wish we would have just one time throughout the year. Back in the early seventies this was tried with British Standard Time - which was one hour ahead of GMT. The problem was that winter mornings were pretty dark, especially in the north of Scotland. However, overall road casualties were reduced as the lighter evenings were safer.
Like most people I have so many clocks around the house now - some of which set themselves - and while this one (quaint isn't it) is effected by turning a little wheel inside, others, like the 'phone, require me to find and follow a series of rather complex instructions.
It's still early at Mel's Diner in beautiful downtown Whoa Creek -- nearly midnight, but you knew they're open all night Fridays and Saturdays, right?
There's a second sheet of vellum paper to act as a diffuser behind the front face. This gives better colour mixing for the RGB LEDs.
The fringe is hyperbolic, with wire inside to make it more formable.
The yarn is from my stash but I bought the clock.
