Apparently, the correct quote is 'even a stopped clock is right twice a day'. It is attributed to several people but favourite is the Austrian writer Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach.

As said by Marlow (played by Paul McGann) in Withnail and I. A truly wonderful film. :)

Bizarrely my forum clock is an hour fast again. As is my car clock. Clearly a different time zone here in the South-West. :roll:

Wow, that got me thinking... I'm 40 years this year. Don't know the exact date, but it was early in the 81/82 relegation season. Great start :crazy:
