I hope you're on your dinner break
I don't want to talk about it. I was disapointed with my play in the main event at Bristol. I could make excuses, (and I brobably will when I write it up) but the botton line is, I played badly. Sigh! I hate it when I play badly. Ah well... back to the drawing board.

When I was kid, we often used to find these in amongst the scrap iron, especially if we had cleared a cellar or a garden shed.
I never knew what it was for until recently when I saw someone using one.
Bet you can't guess what it is

Is it something to do with weaving or rug-making?

Yes. Go to the top of the class. I went to the black country museum recently and watched an old lady transform an tattered jacket into a rug using one of these.

LOL - I run good!
Now, what did you say the prize was? I can nip over and get it to save on postage as I'm only at Desford.

OK Clever Clogs. I've seen one of these used loads of times. What is it?

It looks mechanically similar to a device used in the electrical trade for stretching cable markers before placing them on a cable - so I'm going for some sort of tool used for foaling.

How did you get that? It's a bloodless castrator. It works by slipping an elastic band over the testicles. This is the old fashioned version
