S&M Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 But the coolest item on the planet, which I found today at smiggle was a book safe. On the outside, it's a book, but you open it up and it has a safe with a lock and key and... each lock/key is unique, no 2 ones are the same. So its not one of those dodgy diary locks, its decent. It is so very cool. Is it one of these: If so, how big is it? And how strong? Looks like the metal is pretty thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olivia237 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Umbrella at a cheapo store. It was $8, but the store was having a 50% sale, so only 4. Book safe at Smiggle (a stationary store) and cost $30 And it's impossible, since i have both Saturday and Sunday. If someone could cover Sunday I could go after Saturday shift. But I couldn't do the same if someone could cover Saturday. Hopefully this person will be able to cover though They are... I just need to find some place to put it in my already packed room. At least the book safe is easy to put, I'm going to go and put some things in there now ;D have fun! and good luck putting your umbrella up, keeping mine from falling down is a biyatch!

soangel Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Is it one of these: If so, how big is it? And how strong? Looks like the metal is pretty thin. Thats the exact one. Its bigger than your standard book (don't ask me to measure it ) Probably about 5-7 cms taller than twilight, and about as thick as one of the bigger Harry Potter books. And the metal is thinish, but at the same time still thick. Its not like its aluminium or anything, its strongish. I wouldn't be able to dent it with my hands. And each one has a different lock and key. There's over 999 possible keys, and only 1 in those will open your one, so its not like someone can get one and break in. ;D have fun! and good luck putting your umbrella up, keeping mine from falling down is a biyatch! It would be. I have no idea where to put mine yet, but I'll work it out soon. Inspiration will strike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakie Doke Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 *breathes in calmly * However, since I do believe that you, as I do, have a sincere love & appreciation for all things goati-ness ... AND as I have in fact conferred with our aforementioned Bezza ... given the appropriate moment ... you may stroke her 'undertail' .... gently .... for a short while ... a bit ... Yay! *divebombs award, biting and scratching anyone in the way* *realises that she is probably the least deserving of this award on the whole forum* *gently sets it down again and disappears back into the Real World* *admits that the last point was a lie* Don't worry Bezza, I will not be feeling your arse. :rolls_eyes: Not her arse, the soft bit of skin that rubs up against her arse Hello all! Just letting you know that I'm banning myself from the internet until I've finished this music assignment. Bye! Awww, bye! Good luck! I've seen those smiggle safe books The thing is that they are obviously made of plastic and would stand out in your bookshelf. I made a book-box thingy out of an actual book once, it doesn't lock but it blends in like a real book (because it is one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would that be A4 or foolscap size? I think I might get one, how much is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, it wouldn't be too hard to find a dust jacket that should fit it or shape on, if you did decide it stood out too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short of me finding a ruler (impossible in this house) and measuring it, the only way you'll be able to find out the size is to go visit a store. And its $30 (did I mention that alread or not *smth*) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Hi OKD . Got your stethoscope yet? YES! Got it today. Forgot about it These pictures aren't quite right. I tried playing with them but they're still a bit off, it's a darker and slightly more purpley colour than this. MY camera would have done better And it so happens that stethoscopes are "one of those items that Ambrose is unreasonably mortally terrified of", so Jack had to take his photoshooting place.

silver Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Well I'm glad we've settled that. I hear it's still hot and dry in Victoria. Is there still a risk of fires near you, Happi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
