Clocks

[poliphilo]

Clocks accumulate. 

There are three in this room- two of which actually work- and that's not counting the digital display on the set-top box.

There's one in the hall, one in the front room, one in the kitchen, two in our bedroom, three in the spare room, one in the bathroom and I'm not answerable for Joe's stash.

I've just been round the house, counting. 

Some we bought, some were gifts, some were given away free with orders over £50. 

The only one that's the least bit valuable is the only one that doesn't work. 

I like clocks. 

They've got faces, they make a noise. It's almost like they're people.

I think we've got one clock in our house, and it's a digital one on the front of the cooker.

Actually, I tell a lie. We have two - another one is the small alarm clock next to my bed.

And that's all? How strange.

I don't feel a room is properly furnished until it has a clock in it.

My mother despairs as she is used to clocks everywhere. I've just never found the need. Often times I don't even bother with a watch...

I don't really need them either. I just find them good to have around- like pets, I suppose.
