I've finally sat down to have a good look through the posts.

Is that a panorama shot ?
My little Olumpus FE210/X775 uses the xD type memory card.
If you buy an Olympus brand card you can use the camera's panorama function (it's a "vendor lock-in" strategy).
I've never used it though.
I don't really care for the camera - it came free with a shortlived black MacBook (I now have a ThinkPad).
However you made the picture, that looks like a good size room with serious tech and a dining area.
Wallpapering the chimneybreast is a great way to break-up the wall and that's a nice paper.

I've just realised that the globe could be a drinks cabinet (glasses below) !
I love the bare floor. People of the Nordic/Scandinavian countries seem to prefer rugs to fitted carpets.
Many years ago I had a Swedish girlfriend. She told me that during the spring cleaning in the country areas, all the furniture, rugs, everything would be taken outside so that the floor could be properly swept.

Are you a Canadian expatriate ?
Is that a traffic cone ?
In Britain we often find traffic cones and road-signs in the morning in our houses, following a long night spent in a Public House. Our best minds have been unable to explain the phenomenon and we thought that it just didn't occur elsewhere.

Leather, brass, copper, wood, big lens, instruments, books, science, filament lamps, blacklight....
Just sink into the armchair with a drink and enjoy the quiet and all the things.
By the way, those big 500 V 1uF Metal-Polyprop Capacitors from Maplin - if it's not too much capacitance,
there is also a 2uF 440 V Motor Run Capacitor with spade terminals and a threaded mounting lug - cheap, compact, easy to mount (I'm building a ladder). I was intending to use a 1Mohm bleeder resistor across it.

Are those the original deep skirting-boards and picture rail ?
Looks like original door furniture too.
Don't know what you mean about "stuck with the curtains" though - they look identical to the curtains I bought from IKEA last month ! Mine being a house for small people, they touch floor and ceiling here.

That looks like it could be a new building - there is something very modern about it as if there was a minimalist influence. But I know nothing of Dutch architecture.
Incidentally, my cousin is married to a Van Steijn from your country.

Hello again, Ma'am.
That is some palace of stuff !
Thank goodness there are others who are busy with several things at once
and need to have everything to hand.
I'm guessing you may be into Graphic Design, or Wood, Metal and Plastics - not quite sure what you call it in the States (art with a commercial bias).
But I hope you don't need to sleep in that bed !
Hope I didn't miss anyone.
