It's been a helluva ride, David.
I would hate to know how much we have spent on removalists, and the Pies have always been with us on the journey.

No is the short answer, TP. Been in current place for 8 years, and still haven't
unpacked completely. the biggest problem is that I'm a pack rat. Still got toys from the 50's, old footy records from the 60's onwards. Heaps of Albums, Singles, cassettes, from those era's. I still keep the Records now, and I write the scores down religiously. Nature of the beast!
