That didn’t last long, I’ve got to give it to you both. It’s a pull up plug multi socket on the kitchen island.

I can see why you thought that Gloria. No, and we have seen them before. Look at the objects in the rectangular slot at the front, they are a good clue as to what is in the individual containers. (And look at the writing on the lids!)

You've see them before. I shan't let them hang on, they are very fine watchmakers drills. As far as I can make out the numbers on the lids are the diameters of the drills in thousandths of an inch and the biggest in the box is .012". Yes, and far beyond my imagination as well..... :biggrin2:
Next one for shaving?

It's the rough bronze casting that later becomes a perfectly formed steam valve...... (as if by magic! :biggrin2: )

Ian has it. Cathy gets a bonus point as it was served with savoy cabbage, peas and gravy.
