I am not sure if you are a pirate or an old reprobate Bob. Sorry I could not resist that line. LOL

There's even an old trunk out in the wooden shed in the back yard. I was so astonished to find it when we moved in! But unfortunately the bottom has rotted out. It turns out that shed was there when the previous owner bought the house in the early 70's and the trunk was already there. I've always wondered what stories it could tell...
Yes, this one is very lovely. Unfortunately it lost it's original handles along the way and just has rope now. I'd like to replace them. maybe with parts from the trunk in the shed. I can't even get the one out of the shed, the door is warped and the ground has built up near the door. We want to tear it down, but I told DH they damn well better not trash that trunk! I know restorers look for spare parts and there may be something savlagable off it.
So have you guys had fun going through my organized chaos? My house is a 3 bedroom, one bath, a little under 1100 square feet and has two sets of married adults living in it. And all 4 of us are packrats! It's a wonder we can get through any of the rooms sometimes!

Can you believe this, My daughter just came in and told me to turn my music down. LOL that was just too funny for words, I put up with there music blaring all the time, and very rarely ever say a thing. I think everyone needs to be able to express themselves in music and I just think it is a hoot that my own daughter would be telling me to turn mine down. Maybe she just doesn't like Suzi Q. LOL haha

Sorry that I keep disappearing everyone... I've been sitting in the backyard listening to the KISS concert at Carrara Stadium (yes - you can hear it all the way from here!!!)
I can just see the noise complaint letters rolling into the paper now...
I wish I'd gone now... I couldn't afford the tickets at the time. half the people I know are there

Mouse my house is about the size of two normal houses and we have numerous sheds as well as other storage areas and a Granny flat at the side and we still do not have enough room to put everything. We also have 6 vehicles and a big motor driven go cart that belongs to my son as well as 2 motor bikes that also belong to the boys, oh I almost forgot they have a zodiac boat as well. Is it any wonder that we have a huge house and it is still not big enough. LOL That is also why we need to live on acerage. haha

Okay Baby Pharlap, you really do not know who Suzi Quatro is ......... Heaven is your music education lacking, if Rocker were here she would die on the spot.
Hmmm do I need to send you music as well as peeps?? LOL

I've heard of the song 'Devil gate Drive' but that would be the only one I'm afraid... Remember - I'm the young 'un here

Oh yes please Mouse, thank you very much.
I will bet Bob is trying to figure out how to get the loot out of the States and back to Australia. LOL hahaha
Suzi Q is 70's timeframe, that is my teen years. Well mid to late 70's anyway.

Yes I think she did have a part in Happy Days for a while. Have a look at Rocker's site and there is a picture of Rocker that you would swear when you first look at it that it is Suzi Q.
http://www.jantilley.com click on the music bit, now the picture is not exactly the same, but it kind of looks like her.

Ok, I think I was thinking of a different Suzi Q, from the 80's. How can I describe Mexican pastries...Well, they're breadlike, rather than flaky. And they're not very sweet, but good. They come in different shapes and colors. And while the base is pretty much the same, the different shapes and colorings do have didfernt tastes, but it's subtle. We fell in love with them in Mexico City. They all had the same name, but we each had our favorite. I've tried buying them in the stores here before, but they're usually stale. I was in a different store today and they have them now so I decided to try again. They're very good!
I can't stay much longer. I have a regular doctor appointment tomorrow. I think he will decide it's time to send me back to work...

Sorry girls' I was off in Ebay land. LOL
Gosh Pharlap, no I do not think toes do grow back, I think once they are gone that's it, I think you could have a case here my girl. LOL
Well I am glad that sense prevailed and he returned your garage, boy it would not have been nice if your house had of fallen down, what a messy court case. ROTF
