    Rhiwie.... dont forget to put any linen with the embroided crinoline lady on, on ebay, they can bring big money...

    Like this tablecloth?

    I'm using this Photobucket folder to put a lot of the pre Ebay stuff on, and its nice to get feedback from MSE'rs here whether things are rubbish or attractive so I dont waste listing fees. As you can see, an awful lot of ironing to do and better quality photos as well :o

    Oh, don't talk to me about consoles! Hubby has almost everything from a Vectrex to x-box 360, although I think he's still looking for an Atari Jaguar. (No PS3 yet, but now they're coming down in price, he's getting tempted!)

    Glad your hens are fine dave - always a sigh of relief when that happens.

    My salt & peper set are early plastic rhiwfield - Bakelite. The crinoline lady stuff sometimes goes for mad money but i've never had that happen - don't know why.
    I like the hymn number holder & also the Blackface sheep tapestry - I also really like dthe bike & side car pic - lovely subtle hand -colouring - could of lived with that.

    No free listing this weekend, so that's a shame.

    Had to have prunes this morning after all that Thanks button binge. Not to be recommended esp if you live in a confined space.

    :D I also have from a vectrex to a x360 :D In fact I have from way earlier than a vectrex :p

    I also do have a jaguar too :cool: (Mint boxed :D)

    Much too much stuff I am told and I'm limited to 3 consoles in the lounge at one time. Not sure what this has to do with smallholdings, but it is another of my favourite topics :)
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

    What is the top one? Never seen one before.

    I love the bottom horses pulling a wagon. Is it cast iron? I think the dust costs extra :D

    I suppose for those of us unable or unwilling to travel its about making entertainment at home on the holding when the working day is over.

    I think the top bit held the matches and the bottom part individual fags.

    Gosh, smoking was such hard work! :cool:

    Freezy cold, calm and sunny in north ayrshire, we had snow earlier but it's stopped now, but still no power :( Makes the descision we made to put a gerator ring into the house for when we move in feel all the smarter, we've had power out after power out since october!!! This is the longest tho so far.

    Hope everyone esle survived the storm unscathed :) x
