The room I'm sitting in now has 2 chiming clocks and one cuckoo clock, there is a clock in the porch that plays bird calls on the hour, we have a long case clock in the hall that strikes every quarter of an hour, we have another striking clock on the upstairs landing. Along with those we probably have another 20 clocks around the house, and that's not counting the ones on VCRs radios and CD/DVD players. Luckily all the clocks don't strike at once unless someone has had a 'regulating' session, I don't know when I last heard the news headlines!
