Sniffing out the best finds

Toronto Canada - Artist Casey McGlynn's, beagle puppy Olive has been living up to its breeds reputation and sniffing out some great salvage. Whilst on a walk he uncovered some unlikely furniture pieces, including an eight-foot-long wooden bench (an old hockey dressing-room reject scratched with names and jersey numbers) and an oddly shaped, uncracked mirror. Both now sit in Mr McGlynn's dining room.
Burnley pub demolition
Lancashire UK - The demolition of a landmark pub at a gateway to Burnley has started. Contractors have removed the majority of the roof at the Derby Hotel near the M65 roundabout at junction 10 and the work should be finished in around three weeks.
Reuse of the week:
repurposed vespa
Vintage Vespa Upcycled Into Rocking Toy. It was apparently made as a gift for young boy (complete with custom license plate) by his grandfather whose Vespa riding days are over.
