Austin Seven with a Beehive

For those few youngsters on the Forum, biscuit tins were about the size of the box in the photo which might be one. Biscuits were packed loose and weighed by the shop assistant and sold in paper bags. The many broken biscuits were sold cheap and made excellent fudge.
All the talk of petrol and meths burners makes me nervous. You can easily remove eyebrows with a kero Primus. Modern souls are so unfamiliar with fire all would be a serious hazard. I can recall a few picnics where evrything smelled and tasted of kerosene.
