Very kind of friend to offer crash space, but room has TICKING CLOCK and I can hear him snore. Hurrah for earplugs

@dsilverstone Ticking clocks drive me barmy. I’m glad the mother-in-law’s carriage clock stopped working. Made visits unbearable.

@jogbert Rob tends to dismantle clocks when we visit my parents. Including the ones mum hides on top of the wardrobe for funsies :-)

@dsilverstone Evil mum!

@jogbert Now you know where I get it from :-)

@dsilverstone I assumed having four brothers did that. :-)
