Tomorrow is P.O.E.T.S day, a bit of harmless fun.



I acquired this tin, it is heavy and it rattles. The weight is evenly distributed in the tin.

Tapping the side indicates it is about 75% full.



The lid is seized shut. I have applied penetrating oil and am waiting. There is a hint of a design on the metal.

I have not opened it, so have no idea of the contents, so lets have some fun and see if we can guess.

poets day does that mean go home early

But can you say it in full?

 

[jerrytug]

Do the contents shift about, like nuts n bolts? Or fixed but rattling?

 

[optima21]

if you selle the contents on ebay, I guess it will have either "barn find" or "rare" in the title.

and if its eddible I bet its past its sell by date

It's still Thursday here in Derbyshire, I didn't realise we were in a time warp Sorry not paying attention I didn't read the title properly. I reckon Schrodinger's cat is in there.

I know that now I read it again I'm blaming a stinking head cold.

I reckon it's full of disappointment.

Even I could not fit Norbert into that tin.

 

[armalites]

Lets hope it's not the tin the kids "used" on long car journeys

The Vark acquired an old tin

Which he rescued from a bin

The contents a mystery

Possibly steeped in history

And my guess is off the rails

It`s probably just full of old nails.

I`ll get me coat
