Are you a hoarder or do you just have only what you need?
« on: 22 August 2012, 18:48:57 »
I had a horrible realisation moment day today.

 Mrs V was looking for some spare keys for a door. She was rummaging about in a dish of stuff when a three year old infertile pheasant egg "broke".  the other 14 hatched. I honestly cannot think of one reason why I have kept it. I have decided that I am an inveterate hoarder as a result.  ;D ;D ;D

What are you?

I keep all manner of things in the knowledge that I'll need it one day. I used stuff that I've hoarded for twenty years or more. In fact only the other week I used something that I'd kept for years :y
Though I do have storage boxes with all my crap in so it's all kept tidy :)

lol being as i hired a 7.5ton truck to bring most of the stuff from the garage here,(.forgot the damn engine hoist as TB was using it) he still has it cluttering up his garage,

I used to be, but try very hard not to anymore.

So, when a job is finished, the leftovers/spares/unidentifiable junk goes to the tip.
Junk is junk, unless you can find someone who will give you money for it and take it away right now!

Classic car owners are the worst for this; you hear someone whinging that they've been looking for a reversed flanged double ended wotsit for years. You mention that you've got two that they can have if they collect, and suddenly 20 miles is like trekking to Mars.

Chuck it away!
