Grandfather clocks! Hmmm! I used to love watching Tom and Jerry cartoons every Saturday and Sunday.In almost every cartoon, they had a grandfather clock which used to get thrashed. And I really remember one which had quarter hour chimes which rang to the beat of Whittington chimes

Since that time I’ve always wanted to own a grandfather clock.But the cost has always been prohibitive,although that has not stopped me from window surfing in the fond hope of shortlisting a suitable model.

You know just in case, I have a windfall!

The usual place I go to check out grandfather clocks is www.1-800-4CLOCKS.com.The site is a surfer’s delight with rows and rows of grandfather clocks of almost every variety under the sun. The ones I like best however are the Howard Miller Newman Grandfather Clocks;they’re just so pretty. It would definitely beautify a drawing room .Can you just imagine a rosy fireplace with comfy cushions and a great grandfather clock just ticking away in the background?

The site also has a great blog called as www.GrandfatherClocksBlog.com.As I was going through the posts I learned that they’ve brought out a special edition for the presidential election called as the Presidential Grandfather Clocks by Howard Miller.How cool is that!

For those who would like to get a grandfather clock from www.1-800-4CLOCKS.com, they are offering free USA and Canada shipping, as well as, free assembly in the US.
