    I have a t-shirt from 1994. Mind you it was at my knees in those days

    I have serious dress envy. I had a much loved tie dye fish dress in the mid 90s that I wore to death. Have never found anything similar.

    Popped over to mums to print a label, steps dropping off two vinted sales, found 1p, collected a bunch of flowers from olio, found a vintage wooden suitcase with a rusted padlock. It was extremely heavy but I couldn't leave that behind so I got various men passing by in the manor to carry it in a relay 😂


    Mr PIP managed to get it open and it is full of vintage carpentry tools, beautiful. Mr PIP has bravely agreed to be parted from half of them in the hope we can sell some for the build pot. Does anyone know anything about vintage carpentry tools and would be able to tell me how much to realistically list them for if I DM a pic? @KajiKita would Mr KK know?

    From what we’ve seen at steam rallies etc they don’t seem to fetch much as tools. Your best bet would probably be to find a vintage / reclamation home stores or similar, that might want them as, or to sell as, set dressing’.
