What is it?

Tin opener?

Bottle opener?

You just missed Gloria, Ian got it with tin opener.
Next one?

Why was the cafe called that?

Is it after the Australian 7th Infantry Division which carried the same name?

Sorry no Ian. No Aussie connection.

Was seventh gear a term for coasting or freewheeling in a lorry?

Yes Wendy! Of course I never did it because it was so dangerous.....
Next for shaving?

What can you tell me about this pic?

It was taken by the sea......

That's a good start...

Mary Anning, fossil collector?
Statue in Lyme Regis?

That sounds feasible!

Yes indeed, the statue of Mary Anning on the front at Lyme Regis, publicly unveiled by Evie Swire and Alice Roberts on 21 May 2022, the 223rd anniversary of Anning's birth. Mrs Tiz was visiting there with her geology group recently and she took the usual front view but also, for a change, a view from the rear. There was more in the photo but I cropped it to avoid giving too much away (but nothing gets past Kev!). She stands on a slab full of fossils.

She was well-known locally even as a child and before ever collecting fossils. Aged 15 months she was with a group of women who were struck by lightning and all thought to be dead but people gave her a warm bath and she recovered. May Anning

Well done Kev! I would never have got it.....



Russian factory ships moored off Kinlochbervie in 1991. Can you tell me what the Scots called them?

Klondyke?

I don't know what locals called them but were they delivering ice?

I'm with Gloria.

And Gloria got it right, Klondikers.
Next one?

Can you tell me what this is but more importantly, what was its trade name?

Looks like it needs a brush and a handle

No idea on the trade name but it's definitely for a broom.

You're both right and the trade name was the 'ZONK' (Not many people know that.... )
Next one?

What is it? And why did such a useful thing become illegal?
