Mitch's mom 09-03-2011 10:55 AM

Good for you!! It looks to be in pretty decent shape. I'll bet after a *flea dip and a bubble bath she'll be looking like new!

*When I drag in my latest find DH always says "Give it a flea dip and a bubble bath".

U shoudl see all the yard sale a ways from me...but hubby wouldn't stop...kept ignoring them! LOL

marymay 09-03-2011 12:14 PM

I feel your pain. Yes you will.I scream at mine "There is a GS" that man just keeps on driving.Then he says "did you say something"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr.Oh yes and put on that grin of his.

nwm50 09-03-2011 12:23 PM

LOL....i told u to say "Honey, they've got golf clubs!"...bet he woulda hit the brakes then!? I figured the two i hit yesterday was as good as I would get so left alone these GS today.

ladyredhawk 09-03-2011 12:23 PM

well lucky you, great looking machine

marymay 09-03-2011 12:27 PM

Are you kidding me. If it doesn't say PING GOLF CLUBS. He would laugh at me.Bought golf balls today cost 49$ just so he can hit them in the WATER. Go figure that out. And who ever heard of GOLF SUN GLASSES. Those cost 59$ But then he doesn't know what I spent at JA OR WM.on Friday.HAHAHAHAHA

nwm50 09-03-2011 12:34 PM

I know....I was with you at WM ! LOL
That man of yours doesn't care....he knows u sew up a lot for good causes & all. Hmmm, if i was to bribe u to not telling him about it, what would i get? Hehehehe, just kidding !

marymay 09-03-2011 01:09 PM

Still looking for that great yardsale in Louisville...Don't think I will ever find anything, but it is fun looking when I have the time.
Congratulations on your new beauty.

nwm50 09-04-2011 04:14 AM

SarahConner.....lol ! Thanks for the reminder !! LOL
Almost didn't stop there as I never have time to snoop around, lol, but a little bird said "stop here" lol, almost didnt buy it either as he wanted way more than what i had on me, no case & so thick with dust but we plug it in & motor turned on but w/o belt , the needle wouldn't go up or down. That can be remedy though with new belt and a big "flea bath & bubble" as someone else said. LOL

cjaye44 09-04-2011 04:16 AM

Way to Go :thumbup: :thumbup: . I'm still waiting for mine! I want to find one locally and not have to worry about it being mishandled or broken in shipping. One of these days, there will be one with my name on it!!!!!

Linda1 09-04-2011 05:01 AM
