Get a pendulum, look at it from the back...

A tricky detail of an antique balance?
Let's turn the scale!

Give me some more along this line and i think you will get!

You know, I learned English from a book...
(Manuel - Faulty Towers)
...the indicator (tongue?) of a balance?
my dictionary is burning hot!
(you play safe,'cause I'm still unable to post pictures...)

By the way Hadrian, could you teach me how to make a fishlet jumping like your magic sheep here, for the cod liver oil topic?

It would make everybody crazy!

Hi Carolyn,
We Italians use to say "Mamma mia!" -that means "My mother"- when something awful shows up or is reported to us.
Actually, in this particular case I was joking, 'cause I don't think this is an awful wild beast visiting Hadrian's neighbourhood...I would go for veggies...or other stuff. I might be totally wrong.
By the way, how is your fish-oil-propelled kid doing?
Ciao

You probably use something like "Oh my God" in the same way.
So...is that an animal or a plant?
Let's start from big groups of..."things"

Firemoon,
To me it could be something to eat...like one of the previous pics, before the antique weight-scaler.
I think they eat peculiar foods down there!
What do you guess?
