I can't post them (every time I look I get a bit teary but the machines were in really nice condition).
Last night she wrote "After saying to the chap that I would contact you to see if you were interested in any I rang him up today and he had taken the rest to the scrap metal yard!!! He had told me he would keep it all for a another couple of weeks. I was disappointed as I was going to buy a few more."
