Time flees
What's happened to the market clock? It hasn't worked since Christmas but now it's disappeared. Having a non-working clock in the market was risible anyway (given where we are I think visitors expect to be able to believe in the accuracy of our public clocks), so I don't understand why it was left in that state for months. Now it's gone with no word of explanation. One can only hope that someone's having it fixed and will replace it soon.

The clock is not the only thing that seems to be leaving. How about the shops, traders and customers?
Talking of things disappearing, where's our Assistant Manager Ben gone. The market misses him.
The Cry was heard through out the market.
Bring back Ben,we want Ben. Bring back Ben,we want Ben. Bring back Ben,we want Ben. Bring back Ben,we want Ben. Bring back Ben,we want Ben.
The Elephant & Castle is a perfect place to put Barmy out to graze.
Second thoughts -- that's still a bit close,I'm sure I heard of a market in Siberea that needs a Manager.
Bring back the clock !!
The fact that it rarely told the correct time, is a pity,in the home of " Greenwich Mean Time " - but it's main use was to point out the centre of the market. Something that was visible to all & a good place for visitors to arrange to meet.
"See you under the clock at one" - - - - - - what clock ???
