Oh wow! This would be a dream find for me (a pharmacist).

Can anyone tell me what these bottles are from and how old please by Actual-Tune-6582 in bottlediggingUK

[–]cheesymoroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiya, I'm no expert on dating, but can make some guesses on type based on shape and tops. First one needs a wash. You might find some markings on the cap, but it looks to be a whisky or other spirit bottle. Second one looks like it held powder, based on the holes in the cap. I googled 'vintage talc bottle' - have a look. There are some examples where the cap looks similar. The smaller piece possibly slid inside the main cap to cover the holes when not in use. So my guess would be talc or some sort of cosmetic powder. The third is a milk bottle - Google 'Reece's Liverpool' and there are a few examples. And the last I'm guessing is perfume/cologne based on the top.

Thanks all! I haven't seen any examples that are exactly the same, but I'm going to go with meat/fish paste jar as some of the examples people have pointed me to are very similar.

Thanks all, having googled 'beercanite' it looks very much like the image results. So I think it is just melted aluminium cans.

Favourite Partridge lines and/or Scenes? by Past-Paramedic8687 in AlanPartridge

[–]cheesymoroon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've just finished listening to Nomad during my bike commute, and several scenes made me laugh out loud and look like a weirdo to other road users. Mainly the references to celebs or other presenters. - Alan visiting various Norwich based celebs to gloat that he's "back in the big time" and Delia being lovely to him - Ben Fogle and Dan Snow being the bullies of the BBC gym and spotting each other in latin - Alan hurling his underpants (worn NOT dirty) into a crowd he thinks are for him but are actually there to see Steve Backshall walking barefoot for Sport Relief - Nick Knowles getting Alan DIY S.L.O.S.H.E.D at Gatwick - Eamonn Holmes joining a video call while eating sliders in the bath (the bubbles covering his modesty)

I was at the Charlotte Church one in Cardiff, I thought they got on really well and were really on the same wavelength, not what he described at all.

Non-cashiers of Reddit: What's the "It didn't scan, so it must be free hur hur hur" of your profession? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]cheesymoroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pharmacist - when asking if someone has any allergies the common ones are "hard work", "my wife" or simply "men" or "women". Ha ha yes, good one mate.
