    My new toy. Cuts through limbs like butter, great for the wife's roasts. One of the new range of Stihl's chainsaws designed for arborists, backyards and camping. Flerking expensive though!!!Will double post and put in Zombies thread too. That's a size 11 steel capped boot, Zombie blood splatter mark is evidenced. Tomorrow I carve up the neighbour's tree he he he, they live in NSW shhhhhh ;)

    Picked up one of these today ...the new, purple coloured 2 buck coin.

    The image is quite poor...sorry. :(

    The purple colour looks very nice in the sunlight. :)

    well, it depends
    the one I bought cost me about $17

    something like this in one of the SUPERmarkets for crazy rish costs about 60000 yen ... that's about $650
    that's 20 oz of silver ...
    Who told that one cannot eat silver?? :lol:
    [​IMG]

    when I first came to Japan and noticed it I thought it was fake or made of something to justify the price ... when my wife told me that it was real thing I put the first mark in my head about crazy japanese )))



    phew, banana is relic ... no one needs them ... and even if central banks hold them it is just a tradition.
    Watermellon - is what the world spins around! :lol:

    I bought a shop! :| well the stock..

    So i have been stacking for my family since december 2012, and have about 90 ounces saved but its going to take us many years to build up any kind of half decent stack..I have to try something else to get things turning over faster!..

    So we just bought this lot for 400, a massive investment for my family. Mabey just Mabey it will pay off and lead to new investments:) or mabey it will sink and lose time and money, one thing i know is risks do need to be made in any kind of investments and its one we are willing to take, job lot of fashion jewelry from auction, all new stock, the sellers business is changing to selling something else more viable for a retail premises . Collecting next week. Have certainly dived into the deep end headfirst with this but i have done some market research first.

    Wish me luck!

    Just got her yesterday. She's 8 weeks old and doesn't have a name yet. She's so small that when she tries to go up the stairs she falls back down them because she can't get up them. I had to get another german shepherd since the last one was such a great dog.

    Great looking pup. I have had GSD's all my life. Do her ears stay up or are they still going up and down?

    Lovely dog.

    Call it Silver?

    Take good care of the hound and it will give its love back to you.

    They are lovely dogs. Can't blame hip problems on breeders when they fall down stairs/dropped as a puppy.
    Have fun.

    Her ears stay up which i find a little weird. My last german shepherds ears were always down when she was that age.

    Thanks, silver would be a great name haha

    She only makes it up to the 2nd stair. We've put up a baby gate to stop her from trying.

    Traded with Oz for them a while back but your nice little Zombie made me desire to post an image of mine.

    [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/753_p9050007.jpg][​IMG][/imgz]

    A "Matchbox" Lesney Series 34 Volkswagon Campervan Made in England, note two swinging doors and orange "dinette" inside. There are only 4 billion of these left in the world. :lol:

    [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/753_p9050009.jpg][​IMG][/imgz]

    And a A "Matchbox" Lesney Series 64 MG1100, note pale looking blob in the back is a hound (working dog by the fall of its jawline and its pricked ears), there is also a steering wheel, a driver and a towbar complete with towball as it was never chewed off. Half tennis ball is missing though. There would only be about 7 billion of these left on the planet in original condition. ;)

    Next to worthless but a novelty nonetheless.

    PS: Coronation circulated $2 coin is probably worth more :lol:
