Blemished Beamer

Joel was in a little fender this week. A lady ran into the back of him...so it wasn't his fault....but his baby is blemished. Don Lanteigne took him to a repair guy who can fix it AND give the whole car a new paint job. The insurance may right the car off - but Joel will still get a check to repair it, even if there is a little subsidy of money. The good news is no one was hurt, and the car is still drivable.

Lesson Learned: don't iron Aussie $$

As you will remember Mum and Dad, we have been trying to find a way to display Joel's Aussie $$ collection. I found a frame that will take all the bills - similar to the one you found for us at Castleton Square Mall, but larger so all the bills are displayed.

The $20 was a little crumpled - so I thought I'd give it a quick press before framing it. Ha!

Will a bank take back a maimed bill and trade it for a new one? If so - I'll mail it to Mum for an exchange. If not, I'll send some US$ and we'll trade at Valda's International Bank of Australia.
