Wishing Fish Clock

On my way home from work today I thought you might like to see the famous "Wishing Fish Clock" in the Regent Shopping Centre in Cheltenham. It was designed by Cotswold artist-craftsman Kit Williams and built by Cheltenham clockmakers, Sinclair Harding & Co. The 45 foot high clock was unveiled in January of 1987, costing £80,000. It is believed to be the world's tallest mechanical clock, weighing in at just over 3 tonnes. Apparently it blows bubbles every half hour which I always seem to miss, I will look out for it next time and try to get another shot!
