@grayface_ghost Oh I'll be keeping at least two of them. The teddy I actually don't care all that much about if I'm honest, some bad memories. Funny the stock we put in some things, eh @grayface_ghost Also I'm very sorry you lost those things. I know the importance they can hold, that really must have stung Thanks. It's not really the things, is it? It's what they represent and what they represent is real and powerful, and losing them means losing part of what they represent. People tell you it's just stuff. But it's not. Stuff has baggage that can't be detached. Keep the keyboard, I hope I'm around for his 40th :) |

That's a definite win. Life advice from an old hag, keep those things forever. I don't really have anything from when I was a kid, some school poems is about it.
My ex "convinced" me to throw out the teddy I had when I was a baby years ago. Not great but... then the BBC Micro had to go because it was taking up space. And I did it.
If I still had that Beeb now, you'd have to pry it from my cold dead fingers with a crowbar. I survived being a teenager because of that thing.
