I assume that you went out and left him working at the time?

Bending a pipe with plumber's tools - 1 minute.

Rehanging a clock with plumber's tools - a lot longer.

Why? Doesn't the plumber's toolbox contain some PTFE tape he could use to tie the clock to the pipe?

Having considered the strange angle of the wall clock, and the weird shape of the extractor unit, I can only conclude that the space/time continuum must have been warped by this experiment. I bet Stephen Hawking never predicted that. :)

The plumber could have banged in a nail into the pipe and hung the clock from it...huh...amateurs!

Maybe something incorporated into the pipework such as a single hook version of option 2,

Those are brilliant. Properly inventive! And, it rather warms my heart to think that somebody else out there has got as many spare copper pipe fittings as me. :)

I just hope they're lacquered, that's all? ;)
