Tick-tock, tick-tock, what is the time on the clock?
I've been seeing white rabbits all week, Doodle Doodledayeo white rabbits that is! But, I have also felt a little bit like the white rabbit recently, I feel as if I'm always running late!
"Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!"

But why so late?
The clock in my kitchen stopped at 2:47, well at least it is right twice a day! I went to change the batteries on the clock and to set the correct time, which is when I realised that all the clocks in my house were set at different times! I have a selection of modern and vintage clocks, and surprisingly it was the oldest of these clocks, a Kienzle electric clock, that was keeping the best time -accurately reading 11.59.
Time for some new clock batteries and precision time setting!
