TV Show "Hoarders"

Be careful hoarding. In the CSI episode, there were bodies in the mess.

I don't think there are bodies in my hoard Rohumpy !

Today I was given around 2,000 books from a closed Bookstore. Now I have to make more room for them !

The hoard gets bigger........

Londonbus, I, too, am a sucker for books. I have stacks of them all unread, but by golly I have them.

No books yet in these pics as I will take delivery next week.




















Last but not least, there is something I found during my work last week.
The three pieces of wood in the picture are from the Old Ottoman Railway track that ran through our fields. I thought it had all gone long ago. These will be laying to rest in my future garden along with a few Pins and bolts from the same Railway line found a few years ago. I was so thrilled to find such excellent Museum pieces, still in excellent condition.



Living proof that Stamp Collectors are hoarders !

Hi Kirk, I remember "i got my education out behind the barn"

Phil, I think it was Little Jimmy Dickens.

The stanza I remember best was, "My Daddy used to whip me out behind the barn." Reminds me of good old fashioned woodsheds. I didn't get many "whoopins" but I vividly remember the ones I did get.

londonbus... before you bury that railway piece... I am interested in getting a piece of it...

I won't be burying them, they will be used in my Garden so they can be admired and used, just as they were for all those years for the trains that ran from Beirut to Jerusalem and beyond.

It was an exciting find, I have to say.
I did write about the Railway line here at SCF somwhere, but searches have proved fruitless thus far.

What kind of piece would you like SV ?

So Londontrain1 collects railway bits.

I like this idea,
you are very fortunate to be allowed to do so,
In Australia we place all this sort of stuff on the street verge
and it is crushed and sent to landfill.
If we had a structure like yours, we would be subject to fire restrictions,
health laws etc etc and it would never get off the ground.

london... a small piece of wood. perhaps 2x2x2.. That railway tie is part of a history that is older then the USA...
