just post the answer already. :razz:
:p I think Frank was closest. Its one of things anyone that passes the Thames [ and other industrial tidal rivers] has seen and probably never noticed...A cormorant perch, though of course, those gulls use them too. IIRC I shot this early one morning from Millennium Bridge and is heavily cropped in.

Ladybird

Yep! not heard of it either! :shrug:
so is it Franks go now?!? :naughty:
A new one on me. What did Cormorants perch on before these were built? :shrug:
Strange looking object for birds to sit on. Anyway here goes for my first time at this, anyone know what this is, I've zoomed in a bit so sorry about the quality. It'll probably be easeier if I need to zoom out a bit.

Roller wheel on the bottom of a domestic appliance, i.e. washing machine.:)
part of a three pin plug????
Or is it the switch on a cooker socket? I recognise it but can't put my finger on it..... aargh!
Smaller (I think) than what you are thinking. It is about half a cm from top to bottom.
part of the paper feed in a very dirty printer!

Fuse cover on a plug?
Is it a wheel on a vacuum cleaner?
Could it be the applicator roller on a Tipp-ex (or any other generic correction fluid manufacturers) quick correction Tape type machine.
No and no. I'll try and post a clue when I get home later.
Temperature indicator on a radiator?
A stabiliser wheel under a clockwork/remote control toy?
Good guess but wrong I am afraid. It wouldn't be used for anything heavier though.
This should make things easier
http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/gallery/data/1210/DSC_6368_2.jpg
or, bottle top, the sort with a 'dripper' type dispenser... I know what I mean :lol::cuckoo:
Closest guess yet. Still not strictly correct though. ;)
I am guessing that you must all be a fairly healthy bunch. There are some subtle clues which may or may not help in one or two of my earlier replies...
