## Description

Science Museum Potato Clock

Review: Spud definitely recommend! - Ah the potato clock - what can I say? Absolutely cracking product. Bought this for one of my colleagues as a Secret Santa present at Christmas and boy was he pleasantly surprised! Said colleague has always had a couple of issues that I felt would really be solved by this clock. Primarily, his diet consists of eating nothing but lots and lots of potatoes in their various forms (primarily the dumpling variety) and secondly, his persistently poor time-keeping made the potato clock a no-brainer for me! Fast forward to today and he's a changed man! no longer are his leftover dinners going to waste - carelessly thrown into the bin to rot - rather, they are now utilised as a force to keep the entire office operating at precision timing, like clockwork. Even my colleague himself has noticed fundamental changes in his behaviour brought on by the arrival of this wonderous, miraculous piece of technology. Now he is actually EARLY for work (well, when trains aren't late anyway..). Normally it would be me who arrives first to the office and have to turn the lights on etc etc. Now though, I regularly find my colleague already at his desk as if he'd slept in the office over night , counting the seconds on his potato clock. Now for the negatives. Sometimes we are forced to make difficult decisions in the workplace, as everyone has to. The shear level of responsibility forced on us by this product are HUGE. On rare occasions, we've had to make tough collective decisions as a team - do we starve or do we keep the clock running. We've made decisions that I'm not proud of.. and I hope that nobody ever has to make the same decisions we've had to make. In a strange way though, the product has actually brought us closer together as a team - when you've had to get through the tough decisions we've had to it breaks you, only to reforge you and temper you into a stronger team. This I put down to the humble potato clock, the greatest wonder of our age, where man-made technology and the natural world blend seamlessly to bring the illumination of 24-hour time to the uncivilised, barbaric hordes of mankind.
Review: Educational and fun - Amazing kit. Easy to follow instructions and highly educational
