Donna - It's not a dumb question. You have to put it on a south wall because you are north of the equator. If you are south of the equator it has to be the north wall. Best thing to do is make a test-clock, take a piece of board or multiplex and put a pin in it and see what it does.
Dick, as you are a faithful listener of Middle Ditch, I am very sad to announce that Paul Hart who plays Alan the publican has died today Saturday May 10
Alles goed, Dick? :) Hope life's treating you well. To welcome bloggers to a more user-friendly web log, I've just opened a new blog site. Now you won't have any problems reading my posts. Tot ziens!
I recall building a sun dial when I was about ten years old, but I found that after I built it the shifting of the earth in relation to the sun meant it was only accurate once each year. Perhaps they readjust the building every few days so it stays current? Lovely shot.

How Neat!!! What side would you put it on?? N,E,S or W? Is that a dumb question???
Is this for real or are you pulling my leg?
I like it a lot but it is probably too simple for most people who will complain they can't wear it.
Cool!

Cool. Might give it a go. It's fun to watch your photographs.
Zo is het maar net. Geen batterijen en toch werkt het.
