Fitted a loft stair this week which prompted a clear out of some of the stuff up there. Why did we keep two busted elect. typewriters and one mechanical one ?? Chucked some stuff out then spent two hours looking through the rest !! Memories, some happy, some sad. Some Enid Blyton Famous Five books ( only Steptoe is old enough to remember them) . Photos , some happy memories, some sad. A metal cased pistol drill which I know trips the RCD when used, why did I keep it !!! Three portable radios, 2 broke, one stuck on Radio 4 . A diary my Mom kept when she was very ill ,made me cry. Yeah, Yeah, we are all roughfty tufty construction workers .. still .. Oh and my Dad's WW11 medals,gave them a polish.
A working music centre that no one would thank you for now , a load of vinyl records 45s and LPs. For younger readers an LP is a long playing record the size of a steering wheel. All sorts from classical, Sinatra, Ella , jazz, Elvis, american folk, Beatles & Johnny Cash and thats just the modern ones !!
Blimey I'm waffling on a bit here, :|
