Owning your own home

Why are there so many giant clocks in people houses?

I will never understand this. Presumably lots of time poor short sighted folk.

Because clocks are awesome. I love clocks and want more.

Apart from electronic clocks that don't set themselves. They should be illegal.

But give me something with an MSF receiver or many hand made gear wheels and I go all gooey.

So they can say "I want that tattooed on me please*
