Chipboard/MFD

I don't recall the rules saying only one guess per person... ;-)

LOUD glue !!!

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "The Medway Handyman" saying something like:

2nd go. Packet of condoms ...

-- Not me

furniture polish?

cuddly toy?

Owain

Generally not a DIY product though.

Are you suggesting that for that sort of activity it is better to get a professional in? ;-)

My guess is that it is something innocuous bt the safety label has been applied without and thought to it relevance. It has to be big enough to get the label on it. I think something like a bottle (of water?!).

We need some more clues.

The message from "Grumps" contains these words:

It was indeed 3 sheets of 80 grit sandpaper!

Send me your address & the fridge magnet is yours :-)

The message from Ed Sirett contains these words:

You mean like a 10" frisbee with "Not suitable for children under 3 years due to small parts" sticker on it? Show me a 3 year old that can choke on a 10" frisbee and I'll show you an alligator[1].

[1] Cue Ian Paisley joke.

Sir, sir, Rummy cheated.....
