ticking along

It's a funny old thing, the English language. It changes as we use it, abuse it, require it. I downloaded these photos, then I uploaded them... kinda logical, really!

This was Friday at Terracinaand today up inside the church tower in my village. I think I was told that this clock is 400 years old. It is believed to be the only one in Italy still wound by hand... today I took a turn at winding up the weights (rocks) suspended below. OK, so I turned the lighter one, and not for very long, but every rock and turn counts, surely?


Today I am grateful for digital cameras.
