I am introducing a post for your photographs with the theme - Seen Better Days

It's not the content of these two photos that have seen better days, just the photos themselves.

Hope you don't mind me posting them here Bretrick but I came across them when going through old photos that belonged to my late mother. The only thing written on the back is 'Wiluna'. I've done a little research and believe it's a gold mining area and there was a gold rush at one time?

I thought there was a "Seen Better Days" thread but can't find it. Search was no help or I wasn't searching for the right words 🤷‍♂️

My humble 1945 cottage had long ago seen better days ... As it was being gutted to the bones, rebuilt and refitted in 2005 :oops:
I purchased it finished in 2006. Guy had rebuilt it to give his sister but she had medical issues and couldn't move in. I got it for a song.
Perfect small size for an old retired guy and a dog.

I KNEW I'd seen one somewhere !!! Thank You !!!
When I did a search (thread title only) for "Better Days" ...
The results said: "The following words were not included in your search because they are too short, too long, or too common: better"
So it didn't find your thread ... in the first pages of 19pages total of results anyway :oops:

Maybe @Matrix can combine my OP with that thread ? Sorry to bother ya @Matrix

The built-in forum search can be very frustrating, it refuses to search some commonly used words. For example, if you try to search "seen better days", you'll get a too-common-words error. Try changing the search phrase until it works, you'll find that only "days" is accepted, but that returns too many results.

Here’s how to narrow it down using Advanced Search:
  • Search in titles only
  • Sort results by most replies
  • Check “Display results as threads”
These filters usually bring the most relevant thread right to the top.

We also have a Google search on this forum. Searching "seen better days" there can return what you're looking for. Google search is smarter, but it doesn't index all our threads.

Searching the forum can be tricky, hope this makes it a bit easier!

What happened to the thread that was started?

Now this looks like I started a thread when in reality I just answered somebody else’s thread. 🤷‍♀️
