Let me see if I can find the thing.....! Yeah, Pa liberated quite a lot. And then, there was the lorry load of a million cigarettes he got from...
Yup - I avoided calling it that, because some of my dad's bits weren't made by soldiers, but rather FOR them. He was in North Africa and I've a...
OK, this is weird. I've found the completed listing and I swear it's the tray I bought. The seller isn't actually that far from where I got it,...
No, davey, bought it at a local market yesterday for five quid. ;) Hadn't spotted the Ebay one, what did you search on? It's about nine and a...

Yup, toothbrush and sopay water. If that doesn't do it, Magic Eraser. I agree on the dishwasher thing: people forget that old pots and baked...

Yes, TK as some kind of maker's mark. I've seen other stuff which incorporated the initials of the maker - Nina Ricci and Joan Rivers, for example.
Hm. I think that's a very stylised TK.
<snicker> See, I've never had olive oil go crud on me. I suspect the iggy stuff is just residue of paws and muck. I'd give it a good hard wipe...
