About Me

Grain grinder?
AHA!,
The Cosa Nortra used to shout "Open Sesame"
Sesame, the donkey, then turned the wheel to open the entrance to the secret cave.
i love your blog. it's interesting and what part of italy do you love.

It looks like a grain milling thing but I'm sure I'm wrong!
I guess you need a knife or two to use this one...?
Looks like a mill wheel in use as a restaurant accent piece.
A torture instrument used by the Mafia?
I think it is an olive press.
Hello Welshcakes: I think it's a weighing machine for grain, incorporating a mill to grind the grain into flour.
Sorry I've not been in touch, there's some good news on my site!
I hope your health is improving and Simi is still looking after you.
Di.xx
Good guess, pink but no. O&A, what an imagination you have! Thanks, Enza. You have a nice blog, too. Good guess, jams, but it's not that. Don't think so, Jade. Not a mill wheel, Flutterby but the other part of your guess is correct. Good one, WW! Ciao, Trubes. I will come over to have a look in a mo. I'm improving thanks and Simi is a fine doctor! Well done, marymary - you are clever. AN OLIVE PRESS IT IS!
Too late to hazzard a guess I'm afraid, luckily since I am hopeless at these things.
Hi, jmb. No, you're not!
