The same guy I got the DDN thing gave me the "Nipper" dog years ago. He had two of them.

did you decorate yr house or did yr wife do it?

because it looks like we have very similar tastes in that area except my whole apartment is a huge mess right now.

[Savage Clone]

My wife and I have very similar tastes. That particular room I did, but we had both talked about the way we would do it. The furniture was collected over quite a long period.

C - I'd really like to see pics of the Palace at some point...

SavageClone - your place is seriously great, sir.

[Cantankerous]

i like the dark woodwork
mine's all white, unfortunately
the walls are all white too because i didn't feel like painting but i don't know how you would really describe what kind of things i like.

but i like lava lamps and my kitchen table is a sparkly lemon and i have all kinds of old dolls all over the place and weird patchwork quilts and knitted blankets from the 70s
i have a lot of stuff from the 60s and 70s actually
but i also like really really old ornate antique things, like stuff like this:

 

and this:

^^^Fucking hell - that looks amazing!!!

[Cantankerous]

oh those aren't mine, i just used them as examples

you know what i love? flocked wallpaper.

[MellySingsDoom]

Flock wallpaper? Wow, very 1970's, but I can serioulsy dig that.

I used to have loads of music and trash film posters up at Melly Towers, but all I have at the moment is some framed vintage comics that Dad Melly very kindly gave to me a few years back (from his own collection). Demonrail fell in love with them...me and Demonrail used to trade film posters back in the day - I still have a massive "Lost Highway" poster somewhere from him, and he has an "Ilsa, She Wolf Of the SS" poster from me....I STILL want an original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" poster - they are so amazing.

I want one dammit! Cardboard cutouts are so often better than the real thing I reckon, I mean, everyone wants a life-size cardboard cutout of Gandalf, but to have Ian McKellen in your room telling you how simply wonderful Judy Dench is in person is another matter...

[Savage Clone]

It's even bteer than cardboard too; it's like that "hardboard/fiberboard" stuff that perforated display walls are made out of.

I could have gotten the life-size cutout of Prince on his motorcycle from Purple Rain too, but that's not my style.

A FIBERBOARD sonic youth display AND a giant plastic dog - you sir, are set for life.

[Cantankerous]

[This Is Not Here]
