Now, how do they come out?

Watching Saturday Kitchen this morning in bed, Mrs HH (who has pneumonia and spent her first night in a while in the marital bed) decided she needed comfort food - and the Lamb Madras they did on SK was it.

So off I go to Waitrose to buy the few bits I didn't have - which included fairly thick Cinnamon sticks.

Now, as an ex-Purchasing type, I understand cost saving 'stuff' - but surely, someone at Barts would understand this wouldn't ever fking work (and it was the same with the Cloves I also had to buy).. And removing the whole top was an utter pain in the neck..

Must be a simple answer (unscrews?) but in the meantime a large knife hacking a hole in the top looks like the best option.

Indeed, it's now cooking and it smells fking wonderful.

If the top was screw top, I'd be OK, but it it wasn't, and I ended up attacking it with a sharp Sabatier, which worked.

But why?

There are two flip up tops - the one you've opened, and another the next level down.

See your second pic - just under the hinge for the top lid is the recess to open the second one, and that one opens in the opposite direction to the first.
