[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 3716838, member: 2844"]Irish, maybe they were used in the UK too. We don't have them here, but I know how it was used: You place the ring on a plate and fill it with hot potatoes and put it in the centre of the table. Potatoes were taken out and served with a special clamp thing. Sounds to me like the Irish were overcomplicating things, but there you are.;)[/QUOTE]
