Intriguing name, just going to learn it now! My name is Pandy short for Pandora!
The Pandy Clock
The Pandy Clock is a clock in my hometown of Merthyr Tydfil in Wales.It was built by the Crawshay family who owned the ironworks in the town.It’s a tower,but the clock only has three faces,facing towards Cyfarthfa castle,where the Crawshay’s lived.The side facing the ironworker’s cottages in the town is blank,so that the riff-raff couldn’t see the time.

Thanks for that info on the name of the tune, I’m half Welsh too so even more relevant. Nice tune…..
“The Pandy Clock” ~ fiddlin’ with Dafydd’s comp
I just happen to like it with a little more growl in it, so I’ve dropped it down, just a half step here mind you, but I did try it even lower. I settled on offering it in G as that is more accessible for a wider variety of inclinations instrumental wise…

Yeah, the first part of this tune is very similar to that of "The Pet in the Kitchen": https://thesession.org/tunes/3611
