We will be in touch
As I was just enjoying a small can of tinned peaches, I wondered why the can is 'ribbed' all down the sides? Why is this then? I can't see the point myself.
Unless it's for 'extra pleasure'?
😯
strength isnt it?
Have you moved to the country?
Why not ribbed bike tubes? Yes I know Colnago did funny tubes a while back.

No, peaches come in a can, they were put there by a man in a factory down town.
😀
😆
Wasn't sure if anyone would get that one!
Took me about 10 seconds to cotton on. I thought it was an insult first and I was going to ignore it. Very subtle though, well done.
🙂
I can only assume that's a reference to Canned Heat.
Otherwise, I am terminally ignorant.
For the terminally ignorant -

Yes, its to give the cans strength. I worked for Crown Cork and Seal (worlds biggest maker of cans) as a metallurgist, I could bore myself to death with can-related factoids...
Oh no here goes Mr MC with his interesting stories of cans!!!! 😉
I bet it's a riot in the M-C household with stories like that!
😉
Surrounded by the damn things at the moment as we are running a campaign for a metal can manufacturer - Mr MC your life must be a thrill a minute!!
Caunaud metal box does em better and makes there own machines. Could what conveyers all day.
LOL at pp and cfh.
Little blue dune buggy is where it's at, non?
Mr Poddy - shouldn't you be eating home-grown strawberries?
MAn that takes me back. I had a cassette with PUSA on one side and the debut Foo's album on the other. It was the only tape I listed too, just kept swapping sides. 🙂
Luckily Mr MC only lasted 6 months and hasn't worked in bean cans in 7 years .. I'm saved 🙂
