Nope. Was deputy for a while but the "top" job was never my intention. Spent my life behind a microphone, not in front of it.

The box for the "Mayoral Chains" is larger and flatter. It has a velvet lining. I wore it only once in 10 years. That was to flag off a rather good ladies' event when I met the wonderful Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson.

Not on the web searches, I think, but she lived then in Darlington.

No. That's a lathe! Much too large.

Another puzzler.

What is my connection with this?



A bit tenuous.

Welcome back Globby

Looks like a box containing chess "pieces"

I don't know what's in it, but if anyone sold that box with those joints finished like that, they're taking the piss
