Scrabble, just had some spare minutes and had a better look round craftgawker and from there I found http://www.make-it-do.com/ which is another nice site. There was one item there of interest - a woman bought the large box of detergent which didn't fit into her cupboards. So she fashioned a metal box into a new storage box for her detergent. Guess what the metal box was? An ammunition box!! Now where would I find one of those little babies?!!!

Default Used furniture

Betty Boo, have a look at Buckley's auction rooms in Sandycove, I've got a few bargains there before. The auctions are usually on Thursdays but you can leave a bid in advance.
TickTock, you just reminded me that there's a couple of ammo boxes knocking around here somewhere. I'll have a mooch and see if they're the right ones. If so I'll put them up.
Edit 25/5/11: here's the charming ammo box...

Hiya wise old owl, thanks for the info. Can you say which quay the shop is on, north side or south side? Wikipedia give this many quays:

"The name designations of the north roadway are (from west to east): Wolfe Tone Quay, Sarsfield Quay, Ellis Quay, Arran Quay, Inns Quay, Upper Ormond Quay, Lower Ormond Quay, Bachelors Walk, Eden Quay, Custom House Quay and North Wall Quay.

The name designations of the south roadway are (from west to east): Victoria Quay, Usher's Island, Usher's Quay, Merchant's Quay, Wood Quay, Essex Quay, Wellington Quay, Aston Quay, Burgh Quay, George's Quay, City Quay, Sir John Rogerson's Quay and Britain Quay."

Worra lorra quays!!!!
