[inej]

Sorting out the room i am finding weird stuff i have kept, old christmas/ cards birthday cards from years ago, a scrapbook which i've had from 10 years old of don johnson with all pictures of him (sad i know ) and my favourite is a few of the original starwars figures .Do you have any thing's you won't throw away ?
Also do you collect thing's now dolls , china ornaments etc?
The only things we really have are fridge magnets from places we have visited (not on the fridge though)
Have you got any strange collectables ? thanks

I detest throwing stuff like that out too.

I have a memory box and have had it since I was a child. There's an array of stuff in it (it's VERY large now LOL), from birthday cards, to cinema ticket stubs, to the poms poms I got when I was in NY for New Year, to a print out of an e-mail from a particularly special person to me, to pictures of George Michael in his Wham! days, letters from my friends when we were kids (they're lovely to read back), to the collars of the dogs I've had and passed away.

I even have my grandas flat cap in there - he passed away last Summer and the Grandchildren were offered to take anything they wanted before his children cleared out the house, the bonnet was the only thing that I *really* wanted, it was more personal to me than anything else there.

I have a colection of poems by Pete Duel that were hand written by a friend of mine in 1972 and I read them every so often. they are now quite faded and brown looking but I keep them in a scrap book of pictures of Pete, I will never part with them.

I also have a collection of Beswick china horses that i ad to every few years.
