Rob..if I may be so bold to call you that....rather than Mr Rob


anyway...I love a rummage...I am off to the local Autumn Bazaar tomoz with Wolvie in tow...he better ditch the slippers

I love a bargain
and love bargaining.....how low can you go!

and the Cakes!...fabulous
the best is cheating at the raffles
you distract them then peer in the big cylinder and spot all those ending in 5

My weakness is 'model fire engines'....I have almost 150, all different,
from all over the world. All on display in two glass cabinets. Often
ridiculed by my 5 daughters, 12 granddaughters and 5 Gt.granddaughters,
so I must also collect 'females' Oh yes 2 wives !!!

They say having daughters is a proof of your manliness or should that be masculinity?
