The exhibits in the V & A were TWO (2) travelling exhibits. On loan from other institutions. Who may well have stipulated that their exhibits should not be photo'd or drawn. OR else it caused congestion around those 2 exhibits. The V & A has hundreds of exhibits to draw. They are not being "mean".

Ours do. Easy enough to engineer in. And pleasant in a bedside clock. And useful in a kitchen clock. Cannot imagine ticking electric clocks are that uncommon….

@@DJAC63 Sorry. I just thought you might know the brand/s of your clock/s. Silly me. 😅 What is there to 'time' when making mayo?! It's a balance of how fast one adds the oil and how much - not how long one mixes. Mix until the consistency satisfies. 🤔 For eggs - or any other 'timer' related cooking process - I use an audible timer. Just set the 'time' required and listen for the alarm. It's better / more reliable than running the risk of getting distracted and losing count of 'the ticks'. In the antipodes we like to use reliable techniques. But, by all means, you do you. 😉😊

A steady stream of quality entertainment for the Christmas holidays -- thank you Evie :-)
My pleasure!!
An episode for the ages.
Always entertaining when it becomes Susan’s therapy group.

Please advise the brand/s and model #s so that I can avoid them.
JOOI - how is a 'ticking clock' useful in the kitchen? 🤔
