Here I go again with clocks. I recently acquired a clock for $30 which happened to have a Hermle Westminster chime movement in it which is worth $370! Anyway, I cleaned it, oiled it, and tweeked it a few times, and this is what it sounds like (this is not actually mine, but from u-tube).

Oooh nice bongs you got ;-)

Why, thank you, fair maiden. My pendulum is 45 centimetres long:)

[cupid04]

What's that in inches ;-)

[stuey]

I had to get me bilingual ruler out: I think about 17.5", more or less.

How very rude!

[stuey]

In what respect, Dizmo?

[Dizmo]

Stuey: I'm just joking :) you talking about your dong... lol

[stuey]

Oh!, OK, Dizmo, for a second there I thought you were questioning my calculations:)

[stuey]

...or my math. ( I realize that you people call it "maths")

[Dizmo]

I'd have no right to question your mathematics abilities, my maths is diabolical :)
