A strange one today.
We went to an antiques fair yesterday and came across a stall selling old kitchen utensils - some of which I bought.
There were many things from the grotesque pig hanging sticks, for newly slaughtered animals, to whisks, jam jars, storm lanterns, water/milk buckets, stone hot water bottles, and so many more strange and wonderful objects.
Pictured are just a few things that I thought may bring back memories of grannys' kitchen.
On another note, we bought from another stall a full set of film camera equipment that appears to never have been used.
The camera is an Olympus and there are 4 lenses from Olympus, Cimko, Kepcor and Hanimex. There are loads of other things as well including 15 filters, flashgun, cleaning equipment, 3 remote releases and other bits and bobs all in a metal carrying case.
Guess I will be trying out film shooting for a while before it becomes ebay fodder.
Thanks to everyone who has voted and left super comments and hope you have a good weekend.
I'm lighting a fire soon, it's cold and wet here.

Thanks Andy, but actually I LOVE cooking.

Really nice.
Have you considered a bit of Digital Manipulation,or maybe a lot, wouldn't it look good viewed through one of those old fashined shop windows.

Nice shot Annette, why don't you try mono or sepia to further give it that old feel?

A lovely selection of items from yesteryear, nicely photographed. I remember the Kingurli brand, but not the others, perhaps they were not sold here. Have fun with the 'new' camera.

This reminds me of Flambards..a wonderful place in Cornwall where you can visit a museum of old buildings and shop facades..excellent composition and so full of nostalgia.
