So there's a conical cord that reads direct in horizontal readings and gimballed magnetic set. In other words, if it rocks from side to side, it centres itself again. It's quite an interesting item, even if you don't have any interest in compasses or the sea. It's quite a talking point, I would suggest, on the sideboard at home. It is available on Saturday morning for just £50.

You simply wind it up, listen to the music, watch for the little pictures on the clock face and turn the clock hands to learn the different times. So this might be very reminiscent for people. That's joyous, isn't it? The imagery across the teaching clock has a school scene, a teacher greeting children at the school entrance door, a child walking up to the school.

So bath time apparently is 5pm. 6pm looks like parents sitting down and eating their tea.
