That's me done. A scattered selected highlights from my Probus collection. I will not inflict any more examples on you as I could go on for a LONG time with this emperor.

You should have seen the ones that got stolen. I found some of my 'stuff' being sold on ebay 15 years later by a female who moved out of the residence 12 months before the said 'disappearance'. The police despite assurances to the contrary did nothing. Statute of Limitations they say. There is no such statute on possession of stolen property ! |
