Time is very illusive and it always seems to be speeding up! The flower clock sounds fascinating it would be lovely to see that one.

The text above mentions 'Greenwich Mean Time'. The word 'mean' here implies it is the mean and not the absolute. We just can't pin it down. I personally love the 'Sun-time' as indicated on my garden Sun-dial, but of course this varies with the day, the week and the month - so no good for catching that train to London! Somewhere I read about a Flower Clock; twelve flowers that opened their petals at different hours of the day. Ha! Back to Mother Nature. It suits me fine. :) As an avid clock collector, I have always been interested in the different ways that ‘man’ has tried over the centuries, to measure time.
