Bingbong is my partner of over 25+ years - always wanted to go out for conductor and eventually motorpeep herself, but back in the 70's, they weren't taking wimmen. She's even better at it than I was, as some folks here can attest who went for a ride with her at Branford. She's also the official house carpenter.And yeah, I'm still cruising on plenty of old stuff here because I can't stand the thought of throwing stuff away just because a toaster coil opened up (borax fixes them) or a motor opens up and needs a coil rewound or just plain jams up because the grease dried out. When something actually gets retired here, it's because the parts just cannot be found for it. :) |
