I must admit that I didn`t really know that one, but had seen it on the internet!


Here`s another ecclesiastical one.


Where would you find this instrument, which has a very interesting history?

And you thought right!! Kelseys Brewery, Tunbridge Wells. Long gone and now flats but it'spubs had it's own unique bar counters in that the customer side had a sloping edge about 9" wide at 45 degrees which was fantastic for leaning (or slumping)on, probably very few about now

Dumpy Level Dover Castle?


That was quick Pete.  The boilers are situated behind a steel door in the tunnel that you first enter for the underground hospital tour.


Over to you...

Spot on Mr JW !! yours, I thought it would last longer than that.


Thanks Pete.   It seemed familiar and I was racking my noddle.  I remembered I'd had a meal in a pub like that with family who lived in Tunbridge Wells at the time.  Started to search surrounded villages and there it was.

There's a funny story attached to that meal.  It was very busy in the restaurant and we'd finished our main course.  The puddings arrived and my niece suddenly said "Oh no, my pudding's stone cold".  Her three year old son shouted out very loudly, "Oh bo***cks Mum".  There followed a very embarrassing silence in the restaurant and an even more embarrassed niece.


Next one ...  Where is this ?
