Wahhh! Sad I got home to find that repairs were being made to septic tank outlet at new house, the guys casually said that they took a pipe from over by shed to replace a broken elbow. Me says what pipe? Suspect Has a look, sees my grey spotty elbow missing, I had always fancied it might be Homebush pottery, well it is now buried deep in the ground! Digger man thought I was joking when I said it was my favourite of the drainage pipes from my broken pottery garden, and that one wasn't even broken! Muttered to them that if we ever leave this house, they can damn well dig it up again so I can take it with me!!! Rolling Eyes

Oh dear Thelma, so they thought you put it there for them?
They should have brought their own elbows!
