The Anything Goes Quiz

Oh, sorry.

How does one become a member of the 'Caterpillar club'?

 

any thing goes quiz.

You have to have bailed out of aircraft, I would imagine in action as against a parachute club?

 

Correct! The strict definition is that you have to have saved your life by using a parachute (I think it only applied to one brand, but I'm not sure on that). Members of the 'club' were typically sent a small certificate by the parachute manufacturer.

 

Next at bat......merlin.

 

what ever

Where was the wooden clock?

 

We had a mostly wooden clock at our farm but that dosen't count does it?

 

I too had a wooden clock.
Wooden face, wooden hands, wooden pendulem, wouldn't work!

 

John Harrison built a clock entirely of wood (this was before he developed his Marine Chronometers). As to where it is, I would guess in his home town of Barrow on Humber, Lincolnshire

 

Wooden clock

Surely David you mean "wooden work?"
No, the answers received are no where near, they need more polish.

 

Re: Wooden clock

Is said clock in Poland?You did say the answers needed more 'Polish'!

 

clock

Thought you might see that!
Yes it was in Poland.
So, how many clues do you want?

 

Is Poland the only answer you were looking for?If not,are we talking about an actual clock?

 

If Poland is the awnser, the farm we used to own was in Poland.

 

Clock

Poland is the country but you can't come up with an answer like that, you might as well say Bavaria cos they make cuckoo clocks, no, I want the exact location of this particular clock! A clue?, 'what time is the next train?'

 

Is this a quote from a PoW movie, by any chance?

 

Clock

No, not a movie quote.
Another clue, one report says that the clock was 'right' twice a day.

 

Thata sounds like a clock that has stopped.

 

clock

You're getting there, It never worked in the first place!

 

Re: clock

Because it was made out of wood.

 

I must admit I am intrigued by this question.For some reason I have a feeling Roel would know this right away.
