    He had a big cape over him when he drove it and used it to store it round the back of his house. I used to wonder how disabled he was if he could lug that thing round. There was another bloke had a similar, but more lightweight version.

    Neither of them would let us have a go, miserable sods.

    Tins of pilchards/sardines with a key to open the lid.

    Cutting your finger on the razor sharp lid.

    The little metal bit to hook the key onto to get it started breaking making you throw said tin of unopened pilchards/sardines at the wall.

    Pilchards/sardines on toast.

    Toast toppers.
