IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT...

Hickory Dickory dock,
The mouse ran up the clock,
The clock struck one
The mouse ran down,
Hickory Dickory dock so goes  the nursery rhymes
only in my case the mouse did not went up the clock, but I was rudely awakened by a loud noise. Bang! I woke up look around the room , then look out my window to see if anything  was wrong with my car. I thought the tyres must have blown.  I guess when you are half a sleep, your mind don't seems to be working too well.  But my car seems  ok so I went to sleep and look up at the wall where my clock used to be. It's is my habit to look at the clock whenever I am awake or go to bed. It was only then I reliased the clock felled down during the night.



Good thing it did not land on my Iphone which on the table.What was the cause?
This was the reason :-

the Double sided tape gave way. It no longer can hold on to the wall.








Now I have to get me a new clock and this time I have to use a wall nail. They don't make double sided tapes like they used to.

  4. Lesson learnt, never use a double sided tape to do a heavy job.

    I think it's normal instinct to check the car first whenever we hear loud noise in the middle of the night. The last time I looked outside my house upon hearing rude bang in the early morning, my hubb's car was hit by a rubbish truck.

  5. @Eugene,
    they dont make double sided tape like they used to.Maybe can still use them but must remember to use hail to double secured.
    @Yvonne a clock is not that heavy. it is the poor quality of the tape I guess. there is always a risk when parking outside. I read sometime back there was a case of someone's care being hit by unknown vehicle in the night, and only discovered in the morning.

    the new iphone is easier to break because of it's glass screen. the clock is in front of my bed.
