Will definitely let you know about Tipping the Velvet as soon as I get time to watch it. Right now it's all about the Sid & Nancy, however... *watches it again*
And as for the clock, would you believe Target? $15, reduced from $45 or something. There might still be some floating around, if you look...?
The Haunted Bookshop tour was really quite fun (apologies for the flist spamming you over it, though :). The guide was kind of melodramatic and over the top, but the stories and places are really interesting and historical and all that. And a couple of them are really unpleasant and rather scary. *g* Very much worth it, though. And I don't think you need to book very far ahead, just call a day or two beforehand. There were heaps of people on our tour. And it didn't rain much! Hee! You should definitely do it, though. :)
You should definitely see Sid & Nancy. It is teh cool.
The clock was one of those no-longer-trendy, reduced things, tucked away beneath a pile of similar clocks in the furniture section, if that helps.
The tour costs around $20. Ish. I think it may be something more like $18 for students, or if you have a group of 10 or more. Well worth it, though. :)
Not the city store, unfortunately. It was actually The Pines (in Doncaster, or Doncaster East, or something). But you never know... And it's kind of dodgy, so you could probably even make one by printing out a similar clockface and sticking it on a round bit of wood, with a clock mechanism. That's the sort of quality we're talking about... but it looks good, so I'm so not complaining :)
Dammit!! Was AWOL all week and didn't get this message until Saturday. Though I did have a housewarming party last night. It'll have to be next time. :(
Also, your clock sounds übercool. Where'd you get it?
How was the Haunted Bookshop tour, by the way?

Really? Holy crap. I might look at my local store, when I work there, which would be this Thursday. Stupid Target.
I'd really like to go, but I think I'd want to go with a few friends. How much did it cost? I'm a bit povo at the moment...

In the city store? Ah, well, bit of a moot point really, as I have little money and certainly should not be spending it on clocks.
*nods* I have no doubt that it is worth it, but I cannot afford it right now. Later, perhaps.
