My CollectionDo you have display cabinets full of stuff? With it all neatly labelled, cross-referenced and entered into a database. Have you been to a convention? Do other collectors look up to you in awe?
I thought I was above this one. I'm not that autistically geeky that I have a Collection with a capital C. But no, I remembered I'm hoarding away every version of "Inside Macintosh" ever published.
What do you collect? And why? I mean, what makes you do it?

Dead relatives watchesSeriously, it all started when I was about 15 and my great aunt died. I was given her 25 year of service to Marks and Spencer watch.
About a year after that, some obscure great aunt 3rd removed or something died. I got given one of her watches too.
I now have about 8 watches from dead relatives. But it doesn't stop there, because I have so many watches, everyone now assumes I collect them purposely. For my 30th I got 3, for Xmas this year I got 2 and I occassionally get the odd watch from other people. I've got about 25 of the fuckers now. And never wear them, ever!
I also have an extensive Betty Boop collection which takes up most of my storage unit.
