&lt;i&gt;I have a Grandfather clock that ticks once every 2 seconds, (and tocks every two on the alternate second). But it also looses around 30 minutes a day.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Nothing wrong with the clock ... it's just that time itself now runs faster than it did when the clock was built ;-)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You could compensate for this by shortening the periodicity of the pendulum ?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Cheers,&lt;br&gt;Rob</field>
