As you’re probably already aware, we’re a bit laid back down here in Cornwall. Whenever us seaside folk trek up to the big city, we’re taken a bit aback by everyone rushing around – what’s the hurry? Something need getting done? Do it dreckly! So this clock from The Dreckly Clocks is the perfect addition to any Cornish home. It’s £19.99 but £24.99 if you’d like it personalised.
“dreckly” (Urban Dictionary)
meaning: An unspecified amount of time, similar in meaning to manana, but definitely Cornish.. it means it’ll happen … dreckly …
“the boats will be back from fishing, dreckly …”

As you may have already read, I’m currently carrying out a reader survey. Whether you read my blog daily, weekly, monthly or less often, I’d love it if you’d take two minutes to answer these ten short questions to help me establish my readership for a marketing course I’m currently on. If this is your first time here, take a look around. If you like what you see, please complete the survey and pop back soon!
Hi , sorry its is silly one! I love these clocks but can’t seem to find anyone who does the personilsed version, like you said here. We’re at the Royal Cornwall Show this year and I’d love to get my hands on one. Where do you suggest? Thanks
Ah, I didn’t realise that link no longer works. Try here: http://www.thecornishstore.com/shopp876896706
I’ve seen them in a shop in Penzance called Drift but they’re not personalised I’m afraid. Good luck! 🙂
Hello, I love this clock. Saw it on a friend’s Facebook page. Where can I buy this clock? I live I. Melbourne Australia.
Thank you.
The original supplier has since retired. There are similar on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/uk/market/dreckly_clock
