Stuck in time

Today I held an open home at a house my team recently out on the market. It was scheduled for 2-2.30pm. We decided that since the property was close to a local school we would stay open until about 2.45 to catch some parents on the school run. I took this photo just before I left at 3.29pm. The people just didn't stop coming through one by one, back to back. Not enough that it was busy, just enough that I had to stay there. I felt very stuck in time, much like the clock on the kitchen wall that must have run out of batteries a long time ago... Or at least 5 hours prior to the photo.
