Lemme show ya our new toy bought from Germany!

Tadah! Introducing our cuckoo clock...

I'm sure you know how a cuckoo clock works... pendulum driven, bird that appears when the clock strikes blah blah blah.
but ours is really cute.

The bird is hidden behind this lil door and it comes out every hour. It goes ' cuckoo' whenever it's out and the number of times it screams cuc-koo tells us the time. So it gets really noisy at 12am or 12 pm becoz it cuckoos 12 times.

After the bird returns to it's home, the music will start to play. Think there's 12 different kind of tunes. Then the best part comes! you see those couples under the door? They will start twirling and dance to to the tune!! When I say dance, I mean going in circles on the same spot. =p

Then we have this pretty zabor clad in very cottage-y apron and hat pulling that string which is connected to bell on the rooftop.

And also. This wheel will start to turn clockwise. A pity there's no water. HA!

Another thing I like about my cuckoo clock is the Roman numerials on the small dial oh and also the 'woody' feeling . So cottage-y yeh?

It's the kind of house Enid Blyton describes in his book. With old grannies baking muffins and white chocolate in the cottage, smoke coming out from the chimney, pretty flowers in the gardens housing gnomes and fairies...etc etc.


So pweetty and romantic.... =DD

Btw, my mum calls the bird the ' cuckoo bird'.... ('_')'' So nan ting. Spoils everything. Muahahah.
