He was only able to appreciate those knockers after she'd asked him for a roll in the hay. :D

@Eric Johnson: That's Franken*steen*! I can't find that movie on DVD though :( So many of those oldies are hard to find.

As for the doors - they really do need a clean and varnish about once a year (or else a little oil through the year), but as with most old wooden doors, they're pretty much left to rot in the weather.
