This a close up of the second of the two NG gold clocks. Last week the bottom part of this one fell off and missed a gentleman ,who was passing by just a few inches.Although painted in gold plate the bottom is actually made of stone and the council suggested that the bolts holding it in place had eroded over the years!

That’s what I’d call a close call. I’m glad he didn’t get clocked!
oh, no! they better fix it right away.
“And the clock struck One…………”, well almost.
Very nice Chris, i made almost the same picture while we were there.
Glad it didn’t fall down then.

Really nice postcard image Chris. The gold is a wonderful cntrast against the building
What a lucky man! If it had hit him, he probably wouldn’t be around to tell about it. :)
I have a nice small plate with a picture of this clock. I bought it in London UK last week.
