What is It? Game 27.

Alex

This week's collaboration with What is It? Blog brings us this strange object: can you guess what it is? More clues at What is It? Blog.

Place your guess in the comment section - and please, post no URL; let others play. No T-shirt this week, you're playing for bragging rights only.

Update 6/29/07: It's a device for holding shirt sleeves: Patent number 640,080. No one got it right, but there were many creative guesses!

Its a Scovuncial Clasp, usually just called a 'clasper.' Traditional Irish clog dancers frequently suffer from embarassment when their strenuous dances cause the breast bands of their authentic 13th century styled under garments to loosen and drap from their blouse fronts in an unseemly fashion. This small clasp helps them maintain their dignity, even while performing the "hunting eels in a septic bog' routine.

At first, I wondered how he could keep driving, but then I remembered it's in England.

"Not only is it disrespectful, but distasteful and offensive, particularly to children who may have been exposed to this nonsense."

Imagine all the children who have now seen that picture, as compared to the miniscule number of children who may have seen the live mooning.

Do they have nothing better to do in Northumberland?

Geez.
They blurred the licence plate when they posted it in public. The licence plates are how they identify the cars for tolling purposes.
They can track the driver down. I just don't know how they'd force him to betray his cheeky friend.

"I just don’t know how they’d force him to betray his cheeky friend."

They can't.

When they say "Police may take action against the man for public order offences and not wearing a seat belt." they mean "if there's enough hooplah whipped up over this and enough 'concerned parent' groups sign enough petitions then we'll try."

What a waste of time.
