Oh Boy! Apart from some electrical and electronic goods, that's almost everything! Just have to find the most photogenic/extravagant/ridiculous thingy and try to capture it in a breathtaking way.
Just need to get something out of my wardrobe then ;)

That's the easy way out! (Though if I can't think of/find something 'other,' I might resort to it too.)

Please note it's the twentieth century not the nineteenth! :2funny:
My old, battered piggybank has lived with me for over forty years. Her rubber 'belly button' has long since crumbled and decayed, but with the help of a kitchen towel 'stopper,' she still holds our coppers, till she is too heavy to be lifted. Then there will be a 'lot of shaking going on,' before the coins are collected and taken to a sorting machine.
Today I took her into the (sloping, no real Dutch angle here!) garden for the very first time, and don't she look happy?
I'm not sure whether I could put this little story with the entry, but decided to play it safe and post it here.
Looks like the piggy is hunting for truffles.
I have got the beginnings of a thought in my head about this one. So we shall see how it goes.

Yeah, I thought that. The poor silly thing might have a very vague, inherited memory of truffles, but obviously lost the plot in her years spent as a beauty queen.
Beginnings of thought are a good thing Howard! Keep the process going!
