Clocking On

So GTFM (very local radio) called last week and wanted to do a piece about the clock being repaired. A lovely girl came and recorded the interview. Then the BBC website called yesterday: today this piece is up there.

I'm typing this really fast - in five minutes it's Radio Wales coming to interview and to record the midday chimes, and then Premier Christian Radio (who just rang) are calling back for an interview over the phone...

Just imagine if we did something really important!

And here is Matt from BBC Wales TV interviewing me this afternoon. Tuesday August 11th 6.30 BBC 1 Wales - watch it and see! (Please note: the sunny weather is entirely typical of this summer in Pontypridd; I hope the Lord has also been blessing you!) Honestly, I have a face for radio, and I relax much more in front of the mike than the camera. But there we go...

(Later)
The BBC Website article now carries the TV piece, and for those who can't access iPlayer, here is the BBC Radio Wales piece in full, with added pictures!

What is the right time Marcus? I set my watch by one of the old times on the clock! Elinor was very confused with you on the news! Blessings to you, Ceri

I have just belatedly read your last sentence and thought you could have played One O'clock Jump Count Basie style (of course) to introduce the news item!... Enough of sad jokes now. Here endeth the comment.
