MYSTERY OBJECTS

[Gloria]

Boiler end cap?

[Stanley]

Sorry Gloria. No, but you are right in thinking that it's inside the engine. No what Part of the engine has a bore with a grating on the top?

[Gloria]

Firebox?

[Stanley]

You're struggling aren't you. One last clue, in practice the bore is full of water and the grating is at the top.

[Gloria]

Station water tower?

[Stanley]

You have tried so hard Gloria I am going to give it you as you are hampered by lack of detailed knowledge and it isn't fair. It's the inside of the air pump off the Jubilee engine.
Now we need another object. Can you think of one?

[Gloria]

I wouldn’t have got that in a month of Sundays.

What is this?

[Cathy]

Is it a Pop Up Power Outlet in a bench top?

[Big Kev]

The lid of a spaghetti container?

[Gloria]

No to both

[Big Kev]

Kitchen bin lid?

[Gloria]

No but you’re right about a lid, but of what?

[Cathy]

Is it the lid of an electrical appliance?

[Wendyf]

I'm thinking kettle.

[Gloria]

No to both of you, it’s only two inches in diameter.

[PanBiker]

16A extension connector?

[Gloria]

No sorry Ian, wrong.

[Big Kev]

Child size drink bottle lid?

[Gloria]

Not a child size Kev, but it is a drink bottle lid, well done.

[Big Kev]

Not a child size Kev, but it is a drink bottle lid, well done.

[Stanley]

What is it? Kev knows the answer to this one, he could perhaps stand back and let lesser mortals have a go.... ?
(There's a good clue in the fact that the scale is redlined at 68F.)

[Whyperion]

Seems a bit low for pasturisation point of milk and a bit high for the safe temperature for baby's bath. Is it a warning point when it is too hot to work (in a confined space ?)

[Stanley]

No.

[Stanley]

Has everyone given up? Perhaps Kev should step in and tell us what the significance of 68F is. If he doesn't I will at dinner time.
