Is anyone going?

It will be interesting to hear what people bought and what kind of money things fetched and where the items will find new homes.

I will let those new owners tell their tale

I am thinking about empathy... putting ourselves in Dennis Walkers’ shoes and wondering how we would feel if we were placed in the position where a substantial portion of our treasures were auction off under similar circumstances?

The anguish one may experience when making forced choices due to external factors beyond our control. I am thinking Dennis did not wish to have the sale at this undesirable time of the year, if at all. On occasion we may post narratives in an online setting that may unintentionally appear to have us “kicking a man when he is down.”

While I am certain that is not Robins intent whatsoever, the auction event was a moment of introspection for me.

Great post. I know and really Like Denis. Maybe this should be read in conjunction with the 'demob' thread. There's not one of us who has acquired 'projects' thinking we would get to them one day only to discover we are mortal and time is cruel.

....... sadly we are all fooling ourselves that it will not happens to any of us myself included.......... yet we carry on to the last man standing!!!!!

When will we ever learn....... somebody else on MLU said it very accurately....... ..........we are only caretakers of things for someone else in the future.........

It's time we start paying forward while we still can..............

Wishing all the best to Dennis.

Ditto to the above last couple posts.


Personally, my long term plan is that they will develop some kind of immortality pill before my time comes. Failing that, then.....
