The receptacle (6) (54) (94) is moveable between a closed position, in which the opening of the receptacle (6) (54) (94) is covered by the shell, and an open position in which the receptacle (6)(54)(94) projects from the shell (4) (52) (92) at least partially exposing the opening. The receptacle (6) is preferably mounted within the shell (4) for rotational movement relative thereto (6) between the closed position and the open position.</p> |
