• Kitchen bench.

    16 Januari 1999, Australia

    Abikhair's Emporium, Albury, closed in 1997. Albury City took much of the contents for a museum exhibit.
    The building was sold and the remaining contents of the Emporium were auctioned.
    January 16th 1999, Janette's birthday, we went to the auction.
    We had not been able to decide on a kitchen bench. There were several shop counters to be auctioned and we decided that one of these would make a suitable bench. There were two really good, heavy, solid ones and a less solid one. We worked out what we were prepared to bid to and waited for them to come up for sale.
    Bidding started higher than our upper limit on both the better ones. That left one. I resolved to get it. As they say - the rest is history.
    It wasn't as heavy and strong as the others but it was much longer.
    On the way home, we arranged for Canny Transport to pick it up and deliver it.
    Happy Birthday Janette.
