Does this not take you back to a bygone era? But it still exists if you look for it, as seen here in Wendy's picture and following a picture I took in Wales this past spring.

I think this is such a lovely, sweet picture of the two swans moving through the water.  Well done, Rosemary!

Sue, I love those photos of the dooryards and chickens and flowers, etc.  Just what I would enjoy seeing out my back door (in my fantasy world, that is).

I hear a brillo pad does wonders for the rust Ray. LOL!

Diana, you have some wonderful home remedies it seems. Have you thought of writing a book?

I can see millions of sun-starved Brits, Eskimos, Laplanders, and other people from the frozen north, south, east, and west, all scrubbing away with brillo pads. you could clean-up!

Cool

LOL, yeah I could call it "Rust Proofing Your Face: and Other Home Remedies"! Laughing
