Oh, dear – can you imagine?

I just received a press release, and whilst we’re usually all about the positives, I simply had to share its hideous awfulness.

“On the hour, the clock will sound with a football whistle followed by the roar of the ecstatic crowd as the character emerges from inside the clock and kicks a match winning goal.”

Now, I’m as excited about the World Cup as anyone else; the flags are out, the matches are marked on the calendar and the tension is building.

But.

A World Cup Cuckoo Clock?

Really?

We want a whistle and a crowd cheering?

Every. Single. Hour?

*madness*
