Pics from last week

So here are a couple of little photos. Not much.

This is the lovely clock Fluffy got from Boss. His dad has one similar, as does my mum. His dad's is from late 1800's but I don't think this one is. Still, it is beautiful. We haven't wound it yet to see if it works properly, or if the striker works.



This is the roll top desk we were given. It is supposed to be my birthday present but sadly my Mac is too big for it. Fluffy had another smaller one but this one didn't fit in the lounge, so the smaller one went out there and now houses Dobby's keyboard, which she plays quite a lot.



This one is my favorite. It is a lovely china display cabinet, which houses all Fluffy's watches and wind up alarm clocks. neat, hey?



And this one, is the present Boss and his wife brought me back from overseas. Apparently Mrs Boss chose it. Boss thought it was too small, but Mrs Boss said he wouldn't have liked to pay for the bigger one, so I don't know how expensive it was. But it looks lovely on my silver chain.



The photo doesn't do it much justice. It's a lovely blue sapphire with diamonds around. Well, if they're diamonds. But it is a lovely piece, about 1.5cm long. I really like it.

Well, that's about it. Hopefully something exciting will happen this week that I can blog about. So far, nothing newsworthy....

It's a lovely gift from Mr & Mrs Boss. The desk must be small if the mac is too big for it. Or maybe mine looks small because it's the only thing on the desk.

Gah! Clocks! I think I overdosed on those at mum's. The kids aren't going to know what's hit them - not a single chime to remind them it's lunch/tea time...

You lucky frog, scoring all that lovely stuff! Love the china cabinet. The way you got it set up with the watches, it looks like a jewellers shop! My godmother at Biloela has a clock like that. It is 150 years old and made in New York. Unfortunately, she's got family to leave it to! Lol. But the buffet cabinet that it sits on was made by my great uncle... hummm... Love Rat.

OOOO that necklace is GORGEOUS! *drool*

Thank You for your lovely comment about me hair. I usually wear it tied back cos hair on me face drives me batty! But I know it does look nicer out, so am going to try to keep it out!
