DaveH Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 2 weeks on and no takers on this one then? OK, to get things moving on a bit what about this nice easy one. Here is MYSTERY CLOCK 7 As said, nice and simple, where is this clock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveH Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 House of Commons ? No, it's in Sheffield I thought that was the idea, - its a Sheffield History site so the clocks are all in Sheffield, - well, - except for that first one of skeets which is just outside. I haven't been down to London or Westminster for a long time now si it isn't the Houses of Parliament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveH Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Oh dear, a week later and still no takers. Mystery Clock No.6 is difficult due to the fact that there is no clock. In sadistic mode I am going to keep it open a bit longer as I know it's bugging Stuart Mystery Clock No.7 is much easier, so, with this one I will reveal a bit more of the picture each week until someone gets it. MYSTERY CLOCK 7, Now even easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveH Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 City Road Cemetery Correct!, Well done Steve. Now, we don't know where CLOCK 6 is yet, but we do know why it's a dodgy clock (basically because it's not there) We do now know where CLOCK 7 is, it's the City Road Cemetry Clock But why is it dodgy?

Mystery Clock 8 I think Dave's mystery clock 6 is still un-guessed, but it isn't really a clock, just the ghost of a clock. Try this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this one Is it a dodgy clock? All the clocks in this thread have to be "dodgy" in some way. No one has yet said why mystery clock No. 7 (City Road Cemetry) was dodgy ..another unanswered question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this one Judging from the style of clock and the surrounding apex is it a railway station clock? If so it is dodgy because it actually tells the right time BUT the trains never run to it! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveH Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Just checked, the clock is showing the wrong time No. it's not now, - but was it when you took it? Not a railway clock eh, Should have guessed, - most railway clocks seem to be GENTS of Leicester, with the manufacturers name very prominent on the dial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if there is a reason for this. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless one of you was in the window of the book repository (library) on De la Plaza and the other was near a bush on the grassy knoll. That way you couldn't have missed.
