Notes from the May - June 2009
Tour of Ireland, Scotland, Scandinavia and England
 London, England - June 26 The British Museum Clocks and Watches Gallery |
 `Mechanical clocks were invented in Western Europe in the medieval period and were first used in cathedrals and churches. Room 39 traces their development from these earliest examples to complex and highly decorative domestic clocks, marine chronometers, mass-market designs and modern precision time-keeping.` |
 Observatory Regulator - 1675 - by Thomas Tompion Most accurate clock of its day |
 While Kenith rested, I went to see the HSBC Money Gallery. |
 After the Museum, we walked to Charing Cross Rd and caught No. 88 for the flat. |
