Spot the difference!
As I was reading the paper today I saw a photograph about the repairs to Big Ben which have been going on since 2017. Apparently the clock has been repaired, the scaffolding was removed yesterday and it will chime again in the New Year.
As I was reading the article I realised the clock face of Big Ben was similar to that on a tin of shortbread biscuits that I had bought from M & S a few weeks ago to give as a present. I got out the tin and was amazed to see it is an exact copy…but no reference to it on the tin! One the side of the tin are a few random UK landmarks…these include Stonehenge, Buckingham Palace, Edinburgh castle, Blackpool Tower, Tinterne Abbey as well as Big Ben!
It is meant to be a working clock on the tin? We shall see.
On closer examination of the tin clock face there is a badger and a cat supposedly painting and a dog cleaning the clock!
