Amazing Talking Clock from SEIKO
The Talking Clock has arrived! The clock, which speaks the time, is now launched in the UK by Seiko Clocks.
Â
The distinctive pyramid design looks futuristic and would be an ideal gift for people who love gadgets. At the same time, the talking clock is perfect for assisting the visually impaired:
The clock speaks the time and date on an hourly basis and when the top of the pyramid is depressed, it allows the time to be checked on demand.Â
Users can also set the auto-speaking function, so that the time is spoken every 15 minutes.Â
The volume control allows for personal comfort levels to be set as required.
In addition to the standard beep alarm, when the alarm sounds the clock will also speak the time. The alarm has an auto-stop function as well as a snooze button for those who want that extra bit longer in bed!
A digital time and date display is located on the base for those who prefer its looks to its voice.
 The Talking Clock from Seiko Clocks is available from leading independent jewellers across the country.
Model reference: QHL054S. Priced from £40.

bloom’s alma Crib Offers More Style And Flexibility
 The alma is a beautifully designed folding crib made with sustainable wood and stainless steel detailing.
Â
It makes perfect sense if space is at a premium, while at the same time providing any nursery or home with a touch of contemporary style:Â
With its simple patented fold, the alma is the ultimate solution for compact urban spaces, co-sleeping, second homes and for grandparents, or anyone else who only have young children to stay occasionally.
The alma has two mattress heights, combining the benefits of a newborn bassinet or cradle, with a crib or cot that can be used from birth to two years.Â
Like all bloom’s products, the alma can be quickly and easily assembled (with no tools at all). It is also reassuringly strong and well made, while being surprisingly easy to fold and move across a room on its four lockable castors.Â
Throw in the appeal of bloom’s elegant and modern design and it’s no wonder that the alma has become the crib of choice, for a growing number of the world’s leading hotels, as well as the many British mothers and fathers who appreciate form, space and style.
