PSA: The Big Ben tour (not Parliament) includes a climb to the clock room, and all the way up to the bells. Take the 11 a.m. slot and you’ll catch all 12 bongs at noon. The story of how it was designed and built is full of engineering mischief and process hacking. Very much in the HN spirit. Highly recommended.
