    Is it something to do with a hoover or an accessory ?? Perhaps a floor cleaner or polisher ?? But why use more at Christmas ??

    Has it got something to do with sleeping ??

    There isn't another picture Marley Farley - or is it my computer playing up?

    Well, I am completely baffled. It has gone from computer room to Christmas - and a lot of us use it. [​IMG] If it has something to do with post (mail?) then maybe a stapler, letter opener, franking machine, blah blah blah. [​IMG]

    I wish someone would get it soon and put me out of my misery. [​IMG]

    Goodnight all. [​IMG]

    There's a clue there, is there, Marley ???? Golly gosh gal if I can see it ????

    I agree with kryssy ... how have we gone from the office to Christmas suddenly ????

    How about a ribbon making machine?

    A clip to hold candles on a tree ... but why would many of us have these?

    Pedal of a musical instrument?

    Ancient telex or fax machine to send missives?

    I'll throw in a door wedge for good measure.

    Boa noite de min ... xx [​IMG]

    I've just logged back on, kryssy, and my t'other half said the same thing. I have one thirty years old and doesn't look that ancient ... mine's a teddy bear ...

    I hadn't guessed that because we had it fairly recently I thought. I use mine more NOT at Christmas because I don't buy Christmas presents except for my Sis. [​IMG]

    Good luck, mr kryssy ... please don't shoot yourself, kryssy if it's not right ... but then again perhaps you don't have a gun. :D

    Merci mes amies - but I cannot really take the credit. I was completely baffled and then as I was shutting down the computer hubby came into the office and as a last resort I said "What's that?". He looked at it for at least 2 seconds and said "Obvious - a selotape machine". How he got that I'll never know. Still, I'll be posting his suggestion (my photo) later tonight. Watch this space............... :D

    At least I didn't have to shoot myself :eek:
