RE:its a spitty drinking lighty thingee...
I'm more confused now :-2
okay ... i shall put you out your confusion ...
19th century ... bargeman's companion ... tower shaped contraption ...
made of enamel ... bottom layer a spitoon ... next section which fitted onto this
was a paraffin stove ... next piece above this a goblet ... top piece a was a
candleholder ...
in other words a spitty drinky lighty thingee!
