Playing with clocks

20 years ago I had twelve antique clocks, when we had the space. Add the clock on Kirk Yetholm church next door,  and midnight was pretty noisy.
After downsizing I've kept four, and finally they just came out of store.

This one isn't expensive, just an American Ansonia, but I liked the heavy, blue enamelled steel case. I gently got it going a few days ago, and it was losing half an hour a day. Tweak after tweak to the pendulum, and now it's accurate. A nice, soft boing too.
