Spare $2000 what would you buy with it

[gertbysea]

Hi Obbie..

Yes I am.Its something I ve been into for a while and my directions always change.Used to like food photography but it got a little too boring for me plus I didnt think I was any good at it.Now I have ventured into outdoor scenery shots and lately I wouldnt mind doing something along the line of portrait shots.

Oh,and thank you for the welcome too.

Foxx e could have used you on the weekend. Most of our photos are crapola but fun.

Oh,and thank you for the welcome too.

Foxx, why not pop over to the home page and tell us a bit about yourself in the Introduce Yourself thread.  Our members love to welcome newcomers here.

Hally that is so sweet.

i am just waiting to see the HMP in the next week or so.

We have a week at the beach in January, so hot but good.

Any more ideas.

Have thought about this and would put money toward a stair lift.  Having had both ankles broken in the last 10 years (not both together though) my left one was broken 12 months ago and the right one still has the wires in from when they operated 10 years ago a stair lift would be very handy to have and would be very useful as we get older, enabling us to stay in this house.   I like being independent. 

Hope you like the HMP Obbie

I hope you eventually can get one Marie if it means staying in your home.  You certainly have had your share of breaks, how ever did you manage to break both ankles

[Emme]

Actually Judy, it was very easy.  The first time I was hurrying to get bacik to work during my lunch break, having just changed my glasses to graded lenses.  I looked down at the footpath and the path and roadway blended, I looked back over my shoulder to check there were no cars coming at the same time stepping onto the roadway except there was a drop. I fell badly on my ankle, even heard it crack.  Got myself back to my car drove myself home and got my son to drive me to hospital.  It would not mend without them operating and wiring the joint.  It still gives me trouble at times.

Ouch, I hope you got used to your glasses after that accident Marie.  I tried them last time I needed new glasses but 3 weeks later I took them back and got a refund - I just couldn't cope with them at all.

Ouch Marie, Gosh rest up If I was you.

Stair lifts are a great idea.

Our house now is 2 story, but on a slope, so we have a small ramp to the front deck, and stairs up to the back deck.
So easy for my Mum & Dad to walk over to us, with no steps.

Foxx, my sister has a photography business. Has so for about 27 years.

If I had a spare $2k, I would take my family to see, their nanna and mum in WA, it's been a while. Then catch up with my sister in laws (Pattie and Selma) real names Debbie and Narelle in Kalgoorlie. For those of you who know who Pattie and Selma are, yes I do call my sister in laws that to their faces

  Love it HMP!

If I had a spare $2000 that would mean that I won Lotto. Which means it's all mine to play with.

I'd love a HMP, but would have to sell my TMX as that would really be overkill having two machines that were so similar. So, instead I'd buy a Grain Mill like this one. The rest of the money would go towards finishing our patio.

What would you use a grain mill for MJ?

I was out your way on Wednesday.

[meganjane]

To grind our own wheat. Wheat doesn't grind up to flour properly in the TMX. You need good hard wheat for bread.

We recently had a bread making day here and a lady from Pingrup made the most divine wholemeal bread from wheat that she grew and milled in her grain mill. I've never eaten wholemeal bread that was so light and airy.

Did you visit the school? I did relief work there for a couple of days last week. Gorgeous little school.

[Delightful Den]

I spent a few hours with Teresa and Marisa at the school before driving to Broomehill to visit that school .

[obbie]

I think a kitchenaid, thermomix and a HMP all on the counter would be bliss.

I have 2 out of 3 so far. 

any other ideas for $2000
