The super macro guessing game (5)

Finally getting there! But following the general trend of this thread you have taken the orthogonal route.

Yes, that's how we play. Requiring players to know what Brillat-Savarin said about wine in order to interpret a clue isn't fair. In the U.S., "a day without sunshine" is associated with orange juice and a pop singer and a public protest–for those who are old enough to remember (but not too old to remember anything). I suspect that not even all Europeans are aware of B-S's comment.

No, B-S usually means something rather different, and I don't mean British Standards.

I'd never heard of him, despite similarities in our education. I didn't "get" the Sunshine link until I'd looked it up. A day without sunshine, is, ordinary.

But, who said it had to be fair

I will post a shot later tonight, unless there is a situation that does not allow me to do so

Bas .. just do it!

OK, it is simple and it has been done before, but I am reminded about what Monty Python said all those years ago. That has absolutely nothing to do with the object, I have just been reminded of a few sketches recently, so no need to google.

Alligator?

Close enough, you are up..... (still trying to get my head around the latest rules )

I have sought a second opinion and apparently it is not at all related to alligators, at least in Bristol, UK.

Is it manufactured using cast iron?

Now I wish I'd snapped up that copy of Monty Python's complete works when I had the chance.

Is this not-alligator often kept in a workshop?

Is this a rasp?

Not cast iron, I suspect much cheaper, but I assume it is metal.

LOL. Actually, there is a line in one of the Monty P songs which has a reference similar to the name of this object. But let's not go down that route, all of life can be found in a Monty P sketch or song. Just always look on the bright sight of life...

Did you answer the question OhLook asked or were your Monty Python comments actually the answer?
