MYSTERY OBJECTS

[Big Kev]

A lighthouse?

I reckon It's Ardnamurchan. The most westerly point of the British mainland.

[Wendyf]

I think that's one for me Stanley! Is it my favourite lighthouse?

[Stanley]

Yes Wendy Love! You are right. It's Ardnamurchan.
Kev, you were right but I posted that for Wendy I knew she'd get it.



What is it?

[Stanley]

Are their any offers?

[Big Kev]

Apple corer and segmenter?

[Stanley]

Yes Kev! Well done. Now we need another object.....

[Stanley]

What is it?

[Steeplejerk]

I'll let others have a stab at it

[Stanley]

Good Lad Tom! I knew you'd know what it was straight away!

[Stanley]

I think you'd better step in Tom and help them out!

[Steeplejerk]

It's a test clamp for lightning conductor tape,it connects the down tape to the earth tape near the ground

[Stanley]

Exactly right Tom. Not many people know that!
Now I shall go away and think up another one.....

[Stanley]

What is it?

[Stanley]

No responses? It's textile related and you've seen it before.....

[Cathy]

Is it a Weight or Balance of some sort?

[Stanley]

No Cathy, it's a spindle but what was it used on?

[Gloria]

Is it used for twisting fibres?

[Stanley]

Yes Gloria but what machine are we talking about.....

[Gloria]

A spinning machine?

[Stanley]

I've got to give it to you Gloria for persistence. Yes, it's a spindle out of an early version of a mule spinning frame.
Now we need a fresh object!

[Stanley]

What is it?

[Steeplejerk]

Oil funnel ?

[Stanley]

Tom has it.... Conical oil container that used to hang on a loom with a feather in for transferring oil to where it was needed.

[Stanley]

What is it?

[Tizer]

I know who it was made for and I wouldn't be surprised if Prince Andrew has inherited it!
