Obscure MemorabiliaAt home my other half has a broken piece of a piano. Just a single hammer from a broken piano. And yet this twisted bit of wood and metal is a piece from the piano that they flung in the TV series Northern Exposure. We've also got some gardening tools from the first series of Big Brother.
What wierd stuff do you own that has a history?

Tom Jones' sweaty knickers....My mum is a bit of a Tom Jones fan (freak!) and back in the 70's she went to one of his shows and sat with the rest of the randy old women near the front row, spending most of the time screaming her guts out at him.
Throughout the show, knickers and bras were landing on the stage (as they do) and Mr Jones picked up a pair of knickers, mopped his brow with them, and threw them into the crowd.
In the rugby style scrum that ensued, my Mum claimed the knickers.
And she now keeps them in a plastic bag, in the freezer to preserve his sweat.
Handy if they ever needed to clone him.
I know it's something I don't personally own, but I think they will get passed down to me as a legacy.....
