No problem here.

As a detonator? e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj3XILgMhto

Is it to do with the fact that seagulls fed Alka Seltzer will explode or the use of Alka Seltzer to simulate chemical weathering effects?

Yes we used to keep our aniseed balls in them at school.

Spun aluminium washing-up bowls from Woolworths, to contain the explosives.

Oh dear, I seem to have arrived rather late :oops: Well on the subject confectionery, how have jelly babies been used to enhance the effectiveness of a particular weapon?

The playroom is outside with two real ones, so don't have to pretend. Although I have to pretend the engine has been repaired in one of them :cry:

Yes well done Colin, absolutely correct. It was part of Mystery Object No.9 http://www.hmvf.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=2437.msg19165#msg19165

Yes it does, but no trains here. This was taken in the westcountry, but where & why was it made?

Yes PS. Ammendment. I should qualify that. Something is fed in through the top, but it doesn't get split in two.

Nope. It doesn't show it very clearly but there is a rectangular hole (that appears dark) in the middle of the main 'table' area.

Nope

Hmmh but has it been de-activated & does he have the certificate? If its not de-activated does he have a licence for it?

No this is more modern, from a British military manual published in the 40s but may well have been in use a while before that.

Certainly would be if used incorrectly

What do you mean by a sand table?

Where was this photo taken & what was its military significance to the British?

That's interesting I see that bidders are now anonymous. There have been occasions where I have recognised bidders on the basis of their ebay name & sometimes taken it in turns not to bid against each other. Although my wife has recognised "bidders" who always seem to run up a price with a certain seller, but never actually wins the auction. Or if they do it appears on ebay again if they get caught & had to "buy" the item.

Yes K = Pay book Yes U = Belt Well yes, I suppose so if you mean soiled linen etc, it is "waterproof bag" = Wash bag So remaining items to get are: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/fv1620/TCKit4.jpg[/img]
