Hoarding!!!

[harri2000]

Or as I prefer..... Collecting!!

Does anyone else collect anything at all. My wife hates the amount I have (Which quite honestly, equates to not very much other than a few boxes of items I like to refer to as 'My Life') I only have some little trinkets I like to dig out every now and then (Well whenever we move house really) to let the memories come flowing back. Absolutely nothing like you see some people on the telly with their mountains in every room, forming tunnels between piles of trash & Bric-a-Brac!!

.... But anyway, back on topic

I used to collect comics in the mid to late 80's (2000AD primarily)
and also some stamps from my even younger days.

So do you have an accumulation of anything in particular.... and even more importantly.... Just what the hell are you going to end up doing with it all.

I don't have a clue what I'll end up doing with all my comics!! Do I sell them? Do I hand them down to my boys??? (They'll only end up fighting over them anyway!!)

I don't personally,but my lad has every Sonic comic from no1. Couldn't tell you how many there's been so far,but I know when he moves out (oh dear god yes please!) We'll have hire a van just for them. He also collects Auto Sport,there is only enough room in his bedroom for them and a bed......He goes away in June to Download,I might hire a skip.

I hesitate to admit it but I have about 350 cameras, many of them that I desired in the 60's and could not afford, admittedly most of them are car boot buys that never cost more than £5
(and are still worth no more than £5) however I do have a few bargains that I could sell for a lot of money, real collectible cameras,
my project at the moment is to photograph and wrap them up to store them away away for posterity (or for my kids to sell when I'm gone).

What a splendid arrangement

Presuming you have three pairs in the car, a set at the inlaws and a pair for each jacket. Plus a couple at the office?

Holidays must take some planning...

The office is in the house and i tend to sit down in it at least twice a day.......
