Clock & Watch Clinic – Tuesday, 4th April

Derek Bond was welcomed and kept busy at the beginning of the month when he visited The Comrades Hall.

Intended to be on the first Friday of each month, next Friday is Good Friday and there will be no Post Office services so Derek is coming in on Tuesday morning instead at 10am.

Bring along your watches that have been lying in drawers for years or that old clock that stopped working… how long ago? Derek also offers replacement batteries or watch straps.
Customers will need to pay for any replacement parts used but Derek is only requesting a small donation for his services to go to the Post Office Users Group fund 🙂

They should be kept in the shade or under a sunshade if they’re in a buggy or pushchair.
