If you go to settings on your device you should be able to turn off predictive.

Understair cupboard!
How do I tame predictive text?

It's a rather attractive ornament which enriches the environment of the understand cupboard.

It’s a spider catcher of course !!

Hmmm.... I think I've seen one of those before Kateykrunch but I'm not sure what it's purpose is. Could it be a polo stick?

Oh Kateykrunch that mustn’t be touched ntil well into the new year Positively dangerous.....

Glad you found out about the ham holder thingymajig. I hope you knowledgeable GNers can help me with my query.
What is this for?

DH father had a grocery shop. He boiled his own hams on the bone in a huge machine in the back room of the shop. They had a tool just like the one in the photo, for carving the ham at home at Christmas. It was in my MiL's kitchen drawer for years.

Thank you very much MiniMoon. Yes, it does make sense when you think about it

Well bless me! I’ve never seen anything like that before! Makes perfect sense when you think about it!

Put it over

It's a tool for holding a ham. You unscrew the ring, for it over the bone and tighten it. You now have a long handle for assisting you when carving from the ham joint.
