"Small opening brass container on a stick. What is this?"
A: "Bed warmer. Unlike a hot water bottle which is left in place for a while, these are loaded with hot coals or embers from an active fire, and swept around carefully between the sheets immediately before the bed’s owner/user hops into it. Back in the day when it wasn’t uncommon for there to be a fireplace in each room, there’d sometimes be one of these by each fire."

I wonder how many people were employed in the EUs "recycling bin noise measuring department".
Truly money well spent.

Mort,
Only the label is part of the eu norm. With this label it's easier to enforce national laws regarding noise. There was no department and no waste of money, just an international union-wide label that made sense.

#31 I remember when these kneeling chairs were all the rage during the late 70s/early 80s. They were heavily promoted for preventing slouching while sitting by naturally forcing you to keep your back straight.

The company have several other similar designs. Oftern ergonimical and fancy looking, but in my opinion not very comfortable in the long run. The Move one is accemtable if you work standing up most of the time but sometimes want to take the weight off your legs. www varierfurniture com
