bus man 10 #1 Posted June 28, 2019 (edited) Someone asked me if the charictors In clock in orchard square still perform. They used to all come out at a quarter past the hour. I stood there at 215pm yesterday and nothing happened Was it just a blip or do they still perform ?

RiffRaff 10 #5 Posted June 28, 2019 Wasn't being flippant, by the way! Even my mother-in-law has started dropping punctuation in her texts and whatnot, because "everybody does these days", and she drops bloody symbols in everywhere as well! I wondered if it was me being "behind the times" yet again! It's just that it makes everything so bloody hard to read... in fact, depending on the error involved, it can change the meaning of a statement completely. Actually, the spelling, punctuation and grammar that runs throughout this forum is generally appalling. Education or laziness, I wonder?

Colin Foster 70 #11 Posted June 28, 2019 On topic.... the clock hasn't chimed and the people haven't appeared for a few years now. It takes whoever lookscafter the clock about two weeks to realise the clocks have gone back/forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
