In 1979, we bought our first house, after years of being squashed in 
apartments. This one was a solid brick bungalow built around 1913, with various 
modifications performed over the years..one such was the addition of a small 
back room off the kitchen, with its own entrance. Great place to stow records, 
we thought, since I'd be able to take them directly from the car. As we started 
moving in, we put shelving units and a few loads of records in there one day, 
and then wondered on our next visit why they seemed to be a little lower. 
Turned out that there was nothing under the floor, which had begun to come away 
from the wall along one side. We still used that room for records and cold 
storage, as well as entertainment when the occasional cat (or who knows what 
else) came in through the new opening.
