There is something
slightly odd about a clock that has a rather flat battery, when I say flat I
refer to the power of the battery rather than a squashed one. Clocks tend to be
a device of certainty something we trust and rely on while they rotate. Of
course every now and again we come across one that is stopped but that is OK
because it is stopped and as we know a stopped clock is in general of little
use.
However a clock with a
nice big friendly face and hands that are ticking away as they should; should be
correct, if it was correct last time it was looked at, not at least half an hour
slow. So it was that our trip to collect President Putin from our friend, an
artist and Member of Plaid Cymru got off to a slightly sudden start when every
other clock in the house chimed a chirpy Half Past Ten. I have always been told
it is not good to make President Putin wait, which is slightly unfair as I have
a feeling he has a habit of doing that very thing to other important people at
times.
Anyway we got to collect
Mr Putin right on time and he never noticed a thing, despite going what is
called here in Britain
We have also seen Miss Jo
who had her Birthday today and I ate fairy cake and ginger cake and another
cake, so I have eaten three cakes today so that is quite good.
I sure you will all be
pleased to hear President Putin in Hanging on the wall again now where he
belongs. . . . . . .
Nothing like having a big clock, eh. Yes, I was Russian over to your site and I think you might be Putin us on with this post.
ReplyDeleteAHA AND AHA Comrade!
Better Red than Dead. . . . Hang on thats not quite right.
DeleteI saw a veRy large clock up at a outdoor griLL store last week. I think it was about 3-4 feet across, a meter, so you could see the minute hand in continuous motion. That may have been the first time I have ever seen a minute hand move.
ReplyDeleteI am having a difficult day and wiLL send you a message later.
Oh, I forgot to mention that the clock was off by a couple hours.
DeleteMaybe this is a big clock issue. If someone told everyone else that the time was a certain time, would we know they were wrong.
DeleteOnly time will Tell. . . . . HA HAH HA HAH AHHA HAH AH HA HA HAH HA HAHHAH AHHAH AH AH HA HAH AH AH HA HAH AH AH AH HA HAH AH AH AH AH AH AH A
Your Putin your clock where?! Uhmm. I'm sorry. That was terrible. I'm off my game. I need a ghost commenter.
ReplyDeleteCould you maybe fill in for me and leave an appropriately funny response? Thanks in advance. Yours truly, flip.
DeleteWhat you want me to give you a hand, that a bit alarming.
DeleteThe clock in my kid's bathroom is slow. We're all too lazy to change the batteries so it's a few hours behind. Good thing I'm not responsible for Putin.
ReplyDeleteIndeed I think President Putin would not tolerate Flat Batteries. I am rapidly learning that everyone thinks it's a different time. There must be a clever theory here
DeleteYeah, was this all a ploy to drive more Russian traffic to this site? I wouldn't even hang an artistic rendering of Putin on the wall for fear that it was somehow hacking my computer and constantly watching me.
ReplyDeleteMy little picture of President Putin was a present a couple of years ago from a Russian Spy and it has just been in an exhibition not too far away. There is a old saying that goes on about keeping your enemies where you can see them. Not that we are enemies as I am just a humble chap in the rolling hills of the English Welsh border lands.
