An old tin can with holes punched in the bottom with a fork. You use it for your cigarette butts outside your workshop....holes are to let the rain water out so it doesn't get soupy.
The points are so we can get a false sense of our intelligence.
At first glance it looked like someone trying to bake cookies (biscuits) on a rusted metal pan or lid.
I'll say it's the underside of a metal container with square holes punched so that stuff can drip out. Maybe to strain bits out of liquid of some sort? I've done similar things when repotting in homemade containers,but the discolouration around each hole leads me to think it wasn't water, but something that clung before letting go.
The reason for points? To make us feel clever.
Although i haven't won any thus far, so i'd hate to think my lack of points demonstrates a lack of intelligence on my part.
Well to start, there is no reason for points, but everyone loves them (for whatever reason) so I hand them out like sweeties. You have 10, because you have a cheeky face. You are almost right as well.
Dang! I wasn't fast enough. I think that Razmataz might be right although at first look I thought that it looked like sushi spiked with licorice.
I think that I should get the five points for being the 'most bummed out at not having been first' and another 3/4 point for the explanation that a point puts one way ahead of the other flotsam and jetsam of blogland and clearly marks one as superior!
Jaqueline should have a point deducted for being too nice.
Darling, handsome Tom (500 points), You are the only one that I'm nice to (500 points). .......Is it for your sparkly dust that you use for your Christmas cards ?
Ok, you win. It is - as you suggest - an up-turned oil drum with holes punched in it to allow the burning of rubbish, etc. (as if the rest of you didn't know that...). I was about to give a clue involving Johnny Morris and hot-chestnuts, but this would have been for UK residents over the age of 60 in any case.
I'll send your five points under plain cover as soon as I can get to the post office.
Bad luck to the rest of you, but there's always next time!
It's the bottom (underneath) of a home-made BBQ.
ReplyDeletePoynts meen Proyzez (another 5 poynts pleeze).
Close - I'll check the rest to see how you come in the ratings.
DeleteNo to the second - points mean bugger-all, actually.
looks like holes made by a garden fork but I would be buggered to say what in
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of a garden-fork do you lot use in Wales?! The holes were made with a pick-axe.
DeleteIs it a Petri dish with mould/bacteria/yeast culture OR sensitivity test ?
ReplyDeleteA very good, but very wrong answer.
DeleteHaven't got a scooby-doo!
ReplyDeleteAn honest answer which is worth as much as my 5 points are.
DeleteOr it could be a target for square bullets!
ReplyDeleteYou might have disqualified yourself for a second and flippant answer there. You're on borrowed time.
DeleteIs it an aerial view of an edgy pill-box hat?
ReplyDeleteAnother good but wrong answer.
Delete.....I think that I'm taking this far too seriously !! ....... is it very large frogspawn on the moon ?
ReplyDeleteYou get one point if you tell me who your drug-dealer is.
DeleteIt looks like a paint can lid with holes punctured into it.
ReplyDeletem.
Close, but not as close as Cro's.
DeleteI'd like Jacqueline to win, please. She's such a nice person.
ReplyDeleteIs she as nice to you as she is to me? If so, I'm going off her.
DeleteA shower head! Pffft.. I have no idea... Ok, I have no idea who Jacqueline is but if Mise says she's nice, I'm with her.
ReplyDeleteI'm deducting a point from you for agreeing with Mise. And no, it's not.

Another close shot, but wrong scale.
Deletephoto of satellite position over the earth taken by the Hubble.
ReplyDeleteYou obviously have the same drug-dealer as Jacqueline.
DeleteThe first ever prototype colander.
ReplyDeleteRight. That's it. You're disqualified, but you do get a point for upping my comment ratings.

DeleteCro's painting of a pepperoni pizza.

ReplyDeleteLA LA LA LA - Not listening.
DeleteI've got it ! A template for your stone carving.
ReplyDeleteBTW...how many guesses do we get?
One.

I agree. 2 points deducted from Jacqueline.
DeletePass on the round object wtih growths, but points...points are nothing. Or, points are everything. Your choice.
ReplyDeleteSchool report: Joanne must try harder.
DeleteMind you, Chania is nice too, and Cathy is my new best friend on the strength of her comment alone.
ReplyDeleteVery, very true. Oh this is going to be such a difficult decision.
DeleteHas it got anything to do with hailstones ?
ReplyDeleteErr.... it did yesterday, but that is only because it hailed a bit.
DeleteDarling, handsome Tom (500 points),
ReplyDeleteYou are the only one that I'm nice to (500 points).
.......Is it for your sparkly dust that you use for your Christmas cards ?
Nope.
DeleteIt's the barrel drum they buried Jimmy Hoffa in...
ReplyDeleteYou're half right, Tess, but I'm not sure about which half.

ReplyDeletethere is no justice
Ha ha. And all achieved without a single reference to animals. It's now hit 50, and I have not yet declared a winner.
DeleteCome on Tom. Tell me it's the bottom of a workman's brazier. And there's a good Lower IVth form joke in there too!
