I've kept mine as well. Reminders of past travels. Have also kept old Youth Hostel info from my backpacking days ...

Iâ€™ve still got all my old YHA membership cards, with all the stamps for the overnights. Hmm .. havenâ€™t seen them for a few years, but I know they are somewhere!

Re: Old UK passport - keep it?

I am a dual uk/US citizen. I make a point of renewing my passports every 5 years (10 year validity but I alternate!)
Most passports i still have lying around. Thats not because they are useful. Just i am obsessive!
