I like oil lamps and have one or two, but I have never been keen on the heaters.
The fuel is expensive and I wouldn't trust the wife anywhere near one.

I finished tonight with Jennifer Byrne Country.

Yes sometimes lamps and wobbly Females can be kind of something to get used to.

Then again they do not like the smell of things warming up for that perfect adjustment later aye.

Sigh!

Thank you Charles but I now have a problem with it!

It is missing.

The box is empty and still where I took pics and the others are all back where they should be. I know I am nearly 56 but this is something very strange. I have turned the most unlikely places in a small house upside down to no avail.......yes I even looked in the bloody fridge!

Last Monday was council bin day. Both garbage and recycle bins. I have been through them before not putting them on the street and just now again.

Dumpster diving?

The bins are cleared as of tonight as not a possibility anymore.

Somewhat distressing both misplacing a nice thing and not being able to remember what the Hell I Did!

At least the bins can go out next Monday.......rather full I may add.

I will keep all of you informed..................

My Gast is Flabbered.

Well "Ya Dad" or any Dad has failed to leave a trail.

Bathroom totally investigated now.

Looked under Ship's Cat Cello again.

The bloody thing is
- Bright Blue
- Brilliant white
- With Chrome
- Not something that the robot vac can either move or suck up on the floor without having a seizure with bells and whistles going off either.

What I found beverage in the fridge is nearly depleted.

Tomorrow is another day aye.

G'day B,

Have you checked the garden mate? I do recall you finding an Anzani Pilot after trimming the hedge a while back.

That sneaky hedge might be up to it's old tricks again mate :roll:

NO not the bloody garden as it is filling up with shed clear out with what used to be lawn now rampaging savana poking through it all.

Still not found a bit of an issue actually. How dumb and old does one want to B.

Finding all sorts for a Boyd donation Evinrude Fisherman many boxes scattered and I just go to them with success.

Kero heater and lamp again..........Chuck Berry playing.

Heather Mist ice in chilled glass of course.

Still no joy in "Finding Fuji"

As stated above I thought that the box was on the table still. Wrong the box had been replaced where it lives in a cupboard with further boxes of models and other stuff sitting sitting on top of it? I retraced the steps required to get it out back then.

The box on the table just needed other models put back in. I did that today

The box is empty of course with the outline of the Fuji Nesting plain to see.

Why the B.H. would I go to a bit of conscious effort to replace an empty box?

Further........why do I seem to remember being careful to wrap the flexible remote throttle cable from scratching the paint?

The house is getting very tidy and dusted because of the searching aye.

The bins are clear for setting out for Monday.
