      My grandfather clock is correct* about once a week when I wind and correct it

      *It must be correct as it’s very slightly fast (less so than can be fixed with a quarter turn off the pendulum screw) and I set it slightly in the past

      If you’re lucky, a clock that’s slightly too fast or too slow will be right once
