She says her memory of some things is a bit dusty, but she recalls with clarity, the day her grandfather gave her a couple of old shearing machine oiling cans, and she remembered being intrigued by them. Since that day, the year-old has been collecting oil cans along with a few shipping container loads of other little collectable ''knick-knacks'' and ''bits and bobs''.

Ms Graham is far from judgemental about what people collect. Had she had her own way and enough money to finance it , she would have opened her own retail store the moment she left school. Looking back, Ms Graham says the road to finding the perfect store for her collectables was a long and winding one. Comment now. A doll sits in a toy car on top of a cabinet.
