Photo's and videos are very important to me but apart from that I don't keep a great deal.

I've moved around so much I've got used to de-junking

what did you do with this kind of thing?
It may sound harsh, but i threw all my kids stuff from school away. There was just so much of it. Bags and bags of the stuff.
Even now i keep going through stuff they bring home, keep the best, chuck the rest.

Yeah - I've still got the remains of their cords and the clamps

They dry out and they didn't attract the attention of the sniffer dogs at the docks

God Issie - we're becoming more and more alike..........
