My Sharp calculator/clock is still running after 27 years. I know there is at 
least one other in my town still running.

Hi Barbra,

It does indeed have a metal body, and it sits in a type of wallet do hicky.

It's long.  It take s4 AA batteries that I havent' honestly changed in over 5 
years and they haven't leaked either.

Barry.

Barry, you clearly have too much time on your hands. It does sound like the 
voice. Does it have a metal body rather than plastic? If so, then that's the 
one. But wondering why I called mine Cuthbert?

  Barbra, Not by any chance one of the Old Sharp calculators?

  I Have recorded and uploaded samples to see if you recognise the voice.

  I remember having a talking calculator when I was at school, one of the first 
I think. For some reason I called it Cuthbert, and as I am not in the habit of 
giving my gadgets names, I can only imagine it was actually called Cuthbert. Am 
I raving here or can anyone else remember this? It was great and lasted for 
years.
