Mystery Object, the Original

Storage box or rubbish bin?

 

Correct, Dave :cl-p: Was just going to go away for a while and saw your answer ....



Ours is a bit strange as t'other half decided he'd spray it black to make it less conspicuous and ran out of paint after the lid .... that was only four months ago so no doubt he'll find some more black paint soooooooon ........

 

grrrrrr....should have got that.

 

Hot off the camera this one -

Doormat? A very clean one?

 

In a way you're quite, but not very, close. The material is more or less the same, but the scale is quite different.

(Where would I find a CLEAN doormat at this time of night? No chance at any time of day)

 

Okay, table placemat. Hopefully you don't wipe your feet on that ..... :lollol:

 

It is sitting on a table, but only because that is where I put it to take the pic:D

 

One of those back scratcher exfoliator thingummies

No.
What you see is a very magnified view.

 

Although I've not seen one that colour, is it a scrubby-type thingy you use for washing up?

 

A little scrubber? Noooo.

It's actually a fairly uniform black. The colour doesn't show true as I took it under tungsten lighting without correcting the colour balance.

What you see is only one part of the 'thing'. To use it as intended you would have the other part.

 

I'm making this far too easy, but here's another photo.

:dh: Where's the uniform black? I see stripes ....

Seeing it in it's totality (is that a word?), I haven't got a clue .....

Anybody else care to play with us ??????? :yho::D

 

It is all black. The stripes are due to the way the light was reflected and me taking the pic in a hurry.

Think - Dipsacus and look at the close-up.
