Telling The Time
Cappuccino
I inherited the
beautiful grandfather clock, aptly, from my grandfather. He swore it kept
better time than Big Ben. I tried telling him that was the name of the bell but
he was having none of it.
Much as I miss my grandfather, part
of me is glad he isn’t around to see his wonderful clock has gone horribly
wrong. It has not been the same since that mouse got into the workings. Instead
of chiming the hour, the bloody thing squeaks now.
On the plus side, I always know when
it is 1 o’clock.
