I wish you good luck on your quest. Looks like you've got a lot to contend with here. These web sites you consult, don't they have a "support" function. Maybe someone over there could help you?Bruno Lalibertéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09607511642101907283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545255455173688148.post-92025231878254072292015-06-30T05:12:10.040+10:002015-06-30T05:12:10.040+10:00Ah yes Wendy - if only I could find that newspaper...Ah yes Wendy - if only I could find that newspaper article.

I forgot to mention that the poor horticulturalist whose idea it was in the first place went blind from the shock of the building collapsing. Poor man.

It will be a pleasure to get home, make a cup of tea and spend time looking at the links. <br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545255455173688148.post-41378610818741626222015-06-29T11:28:29.502+10:002015-06-29T11:28:29.502+10:00What a shame the typewriter photo didn't arriv...What a shame the typewriter photo didn't arrive in time for the prompt.Brett Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07706734864792449845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545255455173688148.post-4034445480739624752015-06-29T06:44:17.068+10:002015-06-29T06:44:17.068+10:00How fortunate that Anthaeum collapsed BEFORE openi...How fortunate that Anthaeum collapsed BEFORE opening day rather than during its opening when all sorts of people could have been badly injured or killed. I wonder who was ultimately responsible for its collapse? The architect? The builder? How awful. As for the snap of you by your typewriter - better late than never has always been my theme! Love the red phone. :)La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545255455173688148.post-16326223224602306032015-06-29T00:24:55.651+10:002015-06-29T00:24:55.651+10:00Great photo of you and the typewriter.

Better late than never, right?<br /><br />I found a photograph of a flower clock in Detroit among my grandfather Cleage's correspondence last year when I was doing A-Z.
