I know this isn't quite the right forum, but it's the closest i could think of to put this.
Just putting a post up for my old man since he's not the PC type.

He's a clock maker by trade and it is a dying profession. However he does repairs and servicing and has been for the past 40 years. 8O

If you've got a clock, or know anyone with one that's in need of a service, have a look at the link: http://clockservicing.co.uk/

Just a few pics of his work too below:

This was a 300 year old grandfather clock which spent 25 years in a garage, after my dad rebuilt it, it's been running perfectly since biggrin
Hopefully there's people on here with clocks in need of work, and genuine clock makers these days are few and far between as it's a dying trade.
