Toilet roll dispenser?

 

Nope, anyway that could lead to abuse. ISTR Equipment Regulations assumed an allocation for men of only 3 sheets a day, (women were allocated 9 sheets a day).

Clive, we give up.........well I have......:yawn:

 

GE you were the only consistent contender & did well to get 10 out of 13.

 

5, was an incinerator

 

6, was difficult, it was a meat safe

 

10, I thought you were going to get there with the "bus shelter" quip, but it was actually a cooking shelter.

 

I had to be careful with 8 as you said I think it was for washing. It was actually a washing-up bench. From my 1935 dictionary the inclusion of "up" defines it as for cooking/eating utensils & indeed the little gutter at the end is a grease trap.

 

All the items were "Accessory buildings for peace training camps" 1936

 

Anyway GE you did very well.

thought of fire in 5 but reckoned it would distort anyway no chimney or grate..

 

Can see the perforated zinc in thge top door now, most meat safes I remember had pz on 3 sides.

 

still think 10's a bus shelter.

 

Next one please Clive. :thumbsup:
