Seeing the thread for the oldies, I seem to remember seeing a Guiness Clock at some big show or festival, I was very small, but the name is in my memory altho I cannot recall the clock much now.

Have just googled it and seen it - was at Battersea Park , so must have seen it when my family took me to stay with relatives in Orpington when I was about 4. Copies were taken to other places including Gt Yarmouth but I always thought I had seen it in Norwich. Wish my mum was alive so I could ask her!

I'd forgotten about the guinness clock. I saw it as a child, I suppose it must have been at Battersea Park. I seem to remember an animated Guiness toucan at Southend on Sea, can't remember if it was a clock though. Anyone else remember? Sue xx
