Ding Dong Not for Long

My husband had this beautiful clock passed down to him. I think it came from his grandfather. It makes the most delightful chimes, and it's tick tock is lovely and soft too. Sadly though, our house is very open plan, and there is nowhere we can put the clock where I can't hear it from my bed. Husband could sleep through an elephant on the roof, but sadly I am not blessed with such a gift so for now, the clock must remain at quarter past ten until we live somewhere a little less resonant.
