"The Frog Clock was installed in 1996" and been in continuous operation since. "the mouth of the frog turns outward and releases a stream of detergent bubbles" "said to be the largest public clock in the United Kingdom and was designed by Christopher “Kit” Williams" weighs four tons and is 52 feet long. "similar clock by the same sculptor was installed at Milton Keynes Shopping Center, in 2000"
Unbelievable, I can't believe you visited Telford! It's just down the road from me and we visit often. Severn valley railway is great and we visit quite often too. Would have been great to bump into you both. Also, thanks for saying hi to my daughter on the live stream she was very excited!
It's nice to get away :) glad you both enjoyed it ❤️ Like the hat Zoë, sadly hats don't lend themselfs to me... I can just about get away with a beanie in winter but that's it 😂
Not far away from Telford is the Merry Hill shopping centre which had the added attraction in the 1980's-1990's of a complete mono rail system which transported people to and from the shopping centre to the various car parks across the site. I think it closed due to falling demand in the 2000's. The main station still remains and can be seen on the one part of the building with two of the tracks still in place and apparently the station platform is as it was left when closed.
Theres actually another clock just like this at Midsummer Place and plays a very distinctive song
Cool. I'll keep an eye out for it.

It’s by Kit Williams? The guy who created the Masquerade puzzle art book? That’s incredibly cool! Thanks!!

Hats are cool, more people should wear them.

Oh wow! I’ll have to take a look at that when I’m next in the area!
You had a brake and didn't get me a stick of rock or a postcard. lol. Good to see you guys have taken some time off. Stay safe
I would have bought you a rock postcard but I’d only have eaten it.
