Why do you insist on being ignorant of the facts and posting such foolishness. Portrait of a 17th century gentleman with his WATCH and stone litho circa 1591 of a CLOCK makers shop. Any fool can google FACTS about watches and clocks including hundreds of fotos. Repeating BS does not make it truth. This behaviour seems to be a habit of yours. edit: Queen Elizabeth I was given a WRIST WATCH in 1571. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryB Posted April 5, 2021 Report Share Posted April 5, 2021 our dogs had me up at exactly 7 a.m. The poodle went back to bed and the westie went outside to look for the gardener and play! He had enough sense to come at 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
