4 to go

Oh I think I know, a newspaper

Just 5 to go now.

Nanna your post crossed so i will ignore it.

They are creaking.

Is it musical?

A piece of paper -- yes (but that is not the answer)

Do you wear it?

I can hear those little grey cells whirring from here.

A piece of paper?

I'm sure specs could be classed as 'tools'. (or a tool?)

Specs, NO

6 to go

Ann decided it couldn't be a pencil as it it not a tool.

I take that back, it has already been established that it is not a pencil. Spectacles?

A pencil?

Not a hobby in itself, necessarily, but something you would/could use while pursuing one. And you might display it, although Wobby doesnt...

Could be anything!

Oh yes and the comment about multi tasking was important.

Let me help a little.

It can be part of a hobby that we participate in.

The decorative element may mislead you.

Otherwise you have spotted the important clues.

Oh and I forgot to add you can't cook with it.

Let's recap as Wobbly suggests.

It's NOT: a tool, a book, a clock, a photo, a teapot, a mug, furniture and it doesn't switch on.

It is small enough to carry, usually used indoors, could be a decorative item, can be used as a hobby and everyone has one.

ALSO, he was using or looking at it between 15.08 and 15.48!!

I still have no idea, but maybe someone else has

Sorry, got a bit carried away there...

Ana, calling me names won't help ( but I do have a Tee shirt that says I am a MUG, but that is nothing to do with this item (Maldon Ukulele Group)

All the clues to get you very close are here, I suggest you chat between yourselves and review what you know. You can chat here, I won't comment.

Mug!
