One of the lamps we bought turns out to be an Aladdin 23 model which takes a mantle which will give 40 candle power.
Much better than a standard oil lamp, so just ordered a noo mantle for it.
Well when you want to play you have to play!!!
2 of the 5 had oil in. One at least has never been fired up.
The clock is a Schartz 400 day clock from the 50s. Looks like new but not apparently working. The thread-type wire is intact so it prolly just needs a good clean, or maybe some previous owner numpty did what they all do when it stops, wind it to flip so the spring is locked in the barrel. I cannot seem to turn what the (missing) key should turn. But the rotor with its weights on turns just fine, simply not triggering the escapement.
W found me a free 176 page guide on how to fix 400 day clocks so I'll give that a butchers.
Now just looking at how to tenderise my steak for tonight. It was too big so I cut it in half and froze one part. Didn't eat much of the part I cooked, needed steel gnashers, so now looking to marinate it in something acidic. Coca-cola or vinegar? Hmmm! Both? Why not?!

If it’s tough steak, slice it thinly (~5mm) against the grain and ‘velvet’ it for an hour, then stir-fry it with something.One of the lamps we bought turns out to be an Aladdin 23 model which takes a mantle which will give 40 candle power.

Will be as soft as anything, and will soak up whatever flavour you put in the stir-fry. Teriyaki goes well

Hee hee!
I've beaten it wafer thin and salted it.
I'll let you know.
Must Google Teriyaki.
And "velveting" a steak.
Hmm!
Normally the steaks we get are fine as they are, just fried quickly at a highish heat, but for once I got some Rump, of which I normally like the flavour. The first one tasted just fine, when I could chew a bit up!!
