Some stories on these shelves.

Top to bottom, left to right, apart from the cds (part of my Bach collection.)
The cassette is my son's band's Greatest Hits.

The three single malt miniatures (empty) are from my last failed attempt to enjoy scotch after I developed an oversensitivity to alcohol and can't drink it anymore. The semaphore signal is all that renains from my trainset - all dispersed now since about the mid 1960s.
The single escapement wheel is one of the last things my craftsman father made before he died. I wish he'd been able to finish the clock.
The bobbin is from a bobbin factory museum in the Lake District - no particular attachment, but it's quite nice. The little bear is rosewood. I used to churn them out for sale and made quite a useful sum back in the 80s. There's a wedge retrieved from when the b***ers felled a beautiful flowering cherry tree below my flat window, because the blossom fell in his blasted fishpond.
