Back from the Beach with some more auctions for ebay

We have been lucky enough to have had a few days at the beach, hense the lack of blogging.
                                        Your blogger and happily photographed second son Chauncy enjoying the sunshine on the Gold Coast. (Another story is first born son Frankie who we left in charge of the house while we were away. Ugh.)
We had a great spot on with 360 degree views of beautiful Burleigh heads and the greater Gold Coast. But inevitabley we all have to come back to earth and our first day back has been busy with ebay auctions and preparing items for our retail stalls.
                          Shabby Silky Oak Blanket box bit different in that it has a drawer at its base.
 Large pine desk

Industrial map drawers

Cute deco cabinet
Retro daybed
Silky Oak sideboard to restore

    I'll be watching a couple of these items. FYI that was me that bought the EOD teapot at the WAC, thanks for the great price.

    Looks like you had lovely weather. Just wondering the dimensions of the day bed. We're on the hunt for one for the front verandah but want it to be big enough to stretch right out on. Some are a bit too small & you have to curl up in the foetal position ... and we're not tall people!

    Thought you must have snuck away. You so deserve a beach break. Lovely photo of you two.

    Love your desk and the sideboard - back to the real world huh?

    Love the industrial map drawers! How nice to have a beach break, stare at the ocean and not think about work. Frankie had fun no doubt too.

    Lovely pics,nothing like time away. Had to laugh at the govt. desk, I'm sitting at one now, perfect size for a computer and etc. I stained it dark though.

    There's a whole swag of things I love in that lot! Love the retro chair ... it looks tessa-esque, Brismod picked it!

    And I'm always thinking I'd love some architect's drawers ... too much watching the Brady Bunch. I think I'm falling in love with Mike Brady.

    I rarely write responses, however i did some
    searching and wound up here "Back from the Beach with some more auctions for ebay".
    And I actually do have 2 questions for you if it's allright. Is it just me or does it look like some of these responses come across like they are coming from brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are writing on additional online sites, I'd like to follow everything new you have to post.
    Could you list of the complete urls of all your community sites
    like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
