It happily sits in the garage and only goes out when we feel like motoring. We enjoyed watchign on-line while it was being built and tracking it on the boat over here to the US. <BR/><BR/>I also have tons of jars (although here in the US we call them Mason jars). Most of the ones I have come from my mom, my grandmas or my great grandmas. Gotta love it. Whenever I can something I think about what was in there every year it was used.Chiot's Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05086153621579437021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208538425524032014.post-88022319586308780442009-01-03T05:07:00.000-08:002009-01-03T05:07:00.000-08:00Excellent!Happy New Year by the way :)No you're no...Excellent!<BR/><BR/>Happy New Year by the way :)<BR/><BR/>No you're not mad at all. Rich and I also have a thing for old cars. Rich currently has a 1972 Mark II GT6 sitting in his parents' garage in bits, and I would love to drive a 1964 Triumph Herald or some such other car (as long as it has a big steering wheel!!!).<BR/><BR/>We also have a load of kilner jars, two are currently sitting in the fridge with sourdough cultures in them and the rest are waiting for some jam making this year...<BR/><BR/>And it continues...bricks!!!! At the mo I have a pile of bricks in the garden waiting to either line one of the long borders or one of my veg plots. I also want to create brick paving around the greenhouse, in addition to the rescued paving blocks from my old lower school skip (frugal!).<BR/><BR/>ANNNNDD I used to collect hedgehoggy things, but it's my exclusive 'thing' ;)<BR/><BR/>So no, you're not batty. Or maybe you are, but there's other batty types out there too, which is comforting ;)Lucy @ Smallest Smallholdinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04115962546784994419noreply@blogger.com
