I seem to be the only one who remembers this but I'm sure the story was set in England (possibly wrong about that though) and main girl was slightly spoiled and a bit of a brat.
She accidentally travelled into her own future and saw that it was quite bleak due to her being a bit nasty in her present time. The time travel was all down to a clock she had.
She obviously came good, saw the error of her ways and changed her life around.
I've been trying to find this for years!!
Help please! :)

It definitely is and I've already ordered my copy!
Honestly, it's been annoying me for years and I only found this site this morning. If only I'd found it years ago!
You've no idea how ridiculously happy it's made me. A good start to my working week!!

That is entirely the response I like to see, you've made my day. :)
There's nothing like being reunited with a childhood book! Honestly I had no idea that was the one, only did a lazy quick search... though I did recall the author was probably British (and the publishing details obviously helped).

Cover image here. I like that one. It would be interesting to see what the Magnet edition looks like; they tend to have good covers.
