    It started at $80, I went back a couple of times and pointed out the break in the frame and the price eventually dropped to $50 but there I am thinking to myself "do I really need this".....
    Just as I was about to leave the market I went back again and the seller told me I must be interested as I'd been back several times. I explained I didn't need it, couldn't justify buying it and didn't have any room for it then offered him $40 and he accepted.
    No wonder I can't move in the garage or shed !

    One of my boys now has two cars, pushbikes, a ride on mower (to race) stuff stored under the veranda down one side of the house, I've no idea where he gets it from.

    My wife thinks I'm a hoarder.....
