It's a kitchen item.

Or an organiser for medication, pills etc.?

Pepper / salt pot?

None of the above. It was Colin's birthday present from Craig.

Set of poker dice and a shaker?

Nope. The angle of the side of the rectangular item is important.

Knife sharpener?

I knew you would get the right answer Kev.
It's a rolling knife sharpener.....not the very expensive one!

Are you sure? What angle in the rectangular box? Stewards enquiry please . . . .

That was a good one. I was nowhere near!

For the doubters in the audience, a clearer photo! There is a block with magnets at each end which hold the knife blade at either 15° or 20°. The barrel has 2 grades of ....er ....grindy stuff.

Nowt like some clear technical language..... 'Grindy stuff'
Tried to call you Wendy. 08:15 BBC1 Breakfast TV. Worth watching I think.

Where are we?

Result of Stewards Enquiry - "Objection overruled - the result stands".

Today - Madame Arcati says the words "New Ship" have come to mind - can't think why.

Close but no cigar David..... More famous than that!

Remind me - on Station Road (which I note was not on earlier maps) What was the Town/Civic Hall , Car Park for Civic Hall and The Conservative Club. The proliferation of Methodist versions each with their own (expensive to build, more expensive to maintain) building normally with the compulsory gallery along with Baptist / Congregationalists always confuses me. A web image search brings up ever similar style but doesnt match the flat wooden panelled ceiling . A different search did find it but I cannot work out why it should be particulary famous. I did think Burnley Mechanics but I have never been in there so would not know but it didnt look quite right

Still no cigar....

Parr Hall in Warrington, home of the Cavaille Colle organ that was originally in Bracewell Hall?

Sorry Kev, no. Clue it was made famous by annual singing of a particular piece of music.....

I was going to say the same as Kev.

Sorry Wendy, more famous than that and here's a good clue, it's in Yorkshire.

You may have previously told us that the photo is of Parr Hall.

I've checked and you and Kev are quite right. It is Parr Hall! I am so sorry..... When I looked at the image I could have sworn it was Huddersfield Town Hall, there was no title on it but I have had a furtle and you're both right, it's Parr Hall and the Cavaille Col organ. Once again, I am so sorry....

You were probably just a little distracted yesterday.
