<p>[QUOTE="Razor, post: 594023, member: 18742"]Back in the '70s when I was a teenager my family bought a house that we always thought must have been owned by a bookie. In the basement there was a wiring panel for 5 or 6 different telephone lines. And in another basement room with nothing but long storage shelves there was a wooden shelf you could lift up and out, and then slide up another panel and there was a safe in the wall. Very old and very cool. I changed the combination on it the day we moved in so my parents never bothered with it. I was the only one in the family who knew how to open it. I used to keep my.... ummmm, er.... circus tickets - yeah, that's it - in there.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I lived there today that's where my coins would be, even though they're worth less than some of the other current "family jewels". They'd all be in there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
