### Pack the labels onto the window
#
#
TimeLabel.pack(     side=tkinter.TOP,            expand=True  )
DayOfWeekLabel.pack(side=tkinter.TOP, ipady = 5, expand=False )
LongDateLabel.pack( side=tkinter.TOP, ipady = 5, expand=False )
ISODateLabel.pack(  side=tkinter.TOP, ipady = 5, expand=False )

#
#
#

### Run the function to update the labels ###
#
#
UpdateClockDisplay()

### Obligatory TKInter routine to keep window open

MainWindow.mainloop()
