A £1m clock called the “time eater” has been unveiled at Cambridge University by Professor Stephen Hawking.
From designing the cordless kettle, to designing this. Quite a leap… but what a leap!
It would look bloody great on our chimney breast!

It looks fantastic, but for that kind of money I’d love a clock that was accurate more than once every 5 minutes!
Time is indeed a strange thing – here in the desert it seems to be in very short supply. So much so, that I do not have time to keep up with my friends. I am barely keeping up with my blog – doing a mad pre-publish of the week’s posts on a Saturday night. Anyway, a happy birthday for yesterday – hmmm – talk like a pirate day!
Arrr, me hearty, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum to celebrate!
Carrie: don’t forget, it’s at Corpus Christi College at Cambridge Uni. A clock for students. Late for a tutorial? Not a problem. Four out of every five minutes, the clock is a valid excuse for not getting there on time!
Archie: I know the feeling, mate. I seem to have more demands on my time than fit comfortably into 24 hours at the moment. A few things have slipped with me — your weekly BBC quiz, for example!
I even forgot all about talk like a Pirate day! T’be sure, Jim lad, they’ll be having us walk the plank, arrr!
Thanks for the birthday wishes!
