Speaking Clock
Following
a night out with a few friends, a man brought them back to show off his new
flat. After the grand tour, the visitors were rather perplexed by the large gong
taking pride of place in the lounge.
"What's
that big brass gong for?" one of the guests asked.
"Why,
that's my Speaking Clock" the man replied.
"How
does it work?"
"I'll
show you", the man said, giving the gong an ear-shattering blow with an
unpadded hammer. Suddenly, a voice from the other side of the wall screamed,
"For
f*ck's sake, you w*nker, it's twenty to two in the f**king morning!!"
