If you run at it head first and it gives you ringing sound between the ears it's iron, if you just feel a dull thud it's plastic!:D

The older ones are, it's surprising how much of that kind of stuff is still around and some of it has interesting designs. It will certainly be difficult to make it cutesy by sticking a child in the picture, unless it's an old picture of a loom with it's 12 year old operator stood at it.:D

Anyway, this was my second choice Mick wouldn't allow my first.:o

Is it cutesy if i manage to get a pic of the kid stealing the drain cover?
 
For example.

I am going to see if i can get hold of the member that set the theme tomorrow and pick one.
 
Sorry for the delay in answering, was busy ignoring the bank holiday.

Been in deep thought about the winner and have taken my time studying both pictures closely, I think however that due to the clarity of the picture Churchman phil has managed to take the prize this time, congratulations to you and commiserations to katex for being forced into second place. :)

May I just say thanks to all that found something to enter, some diverse lumps of metal have been displayed.

Cheers Less.
