I had to help parents replace a hinge on some that were made 15 years ago.

Company out of business, all stickers faded, different sizes in different places.

Happy to say after 3 trips to hammer barn, 3 days of trying different things and pulling my back twice (fucking low corners) we finally....

Gave up.

I bought a house built in 1979 and never renovated -- drop ceilings in every room, wallpaper, and carpet that used to be pink. I replaced everything - ceilings, walls, and floors. I even had to replace structural elements because the termite damage turned out to have been "repaired".

I dared not touch a single thing in the kitchen.

Going a bit off topic, I know they are out of date but I always wanted one of those "conversation nooks" you see in 60s and 70s movies - any chance you got one?

I also cleaned my mates carpet as a house warming present when they moved in. Turns out the grey carpet was actually a nice blue.
