Have been looking for my dad's whetstone to sharpen my knives. Haven't located it - but came across other half forgotten items while digging in cupboards
@narayani The dice are from the days Don and I used to be part of a group of friends who would get together on a fairly regular basis at weekends and play games into the wee hours of the morning. We were very much younger then, and there were no babies to worry about in those days.
@ludwigsdiana Thank you. I have collected coins since I was a child. Haven't had all that much travel opportunity but would ask other people for coins when they came back from their holidays ... and I have some from my parents e.g. when my Dad was in Malaya in the war, I think he kept some of the coins from his pay there? I don't really collect any longer, but they are just "there". Maybe I will find some of them might have some small value.
@koalagardens Yes indeed. I was in Australia for an all too brief visit about 15 or 20 years ago. And had to keep back some of the coins to bring home with me.
@777margo Yup I have a few Aussie coins - but they won't go far in providing for me if I come and visit, unfortunately. Do your coins even look the same still? Ours have changed completely in the intervening years.
