Vintage Dutch “Hindeloopen” hand painted wall clock.
This clock, which I guess dates from the fifties, always worked perfectly until I hung it in another room. It needs to be completely level and as my walls are old kauri sarking that seems to be hard to achieve. It may also need a bit of a clean. The clock is hand painted which originated in a Dutch village called Hindeloopen. It works by pulling up the brass weights . That is why the clock should be positioned fairly high on the wall. If you want to make an offer , please PM or TEXT me on 0272484333 ( I don’t expect a large amount of money)😂

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
