Of all the things that you have ever bought, what five items have been the best (excluding the Omega!!) and have most improved your life in some way?

Its really hard to define, but I think mine are:

1/ Engagement/wedding ring (sorry if sickly!)
2/ Clearview stoves (woodburners) (sadly left in my old houses)3/ 1988 Citroen 2CV (sadly written off by an old bat)
4/ Memory foam orthopedic pillow-goes every where I sleep
5/ My little collection of jolly tonka, models & diecast to represent cars I have owned

What are yours and why?


Our two huge log burners , been an absolute Godsend. Thanks E bay !
Our land that Sheilagh and I (literally) built our house on , best 18 months ever .
Two Stenna one way ferry tickets from Swansea to Cork.
My 1976 Manta ,bought 34 years ago  :y
Our two Snow Leopard and Bengal cats. :)
This is Barney, sadly no longer with us but what a character



lovely :)

but havent seen a cat even similiar with a fur like that :-?[/quote]

Here's a couple of photos of our male Snow Leopard and female  Bengal , Leo and Lilly.
They are both a registered breed called Serengeti's ,they were originally called Savanahas but the breeder had to change the type due to the latter being registered in America.
They are Siblings and their family tree is very intersting having a Snow Leopard three generations ago on the male side.
They are the most friendly .tame and intelligent cats I have ever encountered having traits more like a dog than a cat , and have brought us so much pleasure over the years we've had them.
Sadly Lilly , the cinamon Bengal , lost her battle with cancer last week and passed away . She had fought valiently for a year under going ground breaking Electro Chemeotherepy and major surgery to remove the tumour from her throat but it took her in the end. To say we miss her is a vast understatement and the vacuum left is tangeable .
Just wish we could turn the clock back.......... :'(
Thanks for all your interest
Don

Stunning cats D  8-) 8-) sorry to hear about Lily, and yes, the vacuum is palpable. 

I lost Fink-Nottle just before Christmas, killed on the road outside.  I wept for that little cat's loss and still do.
