Thrown away: The stuff you loved and lost.Smash Wogan writes, "we all love our Mums, but we all know that Mums can be cunts, throwing out our carefully hoarded crap that we know is going to be worth millions some day."
What priceless junk have you lost because someone just threw it out?
Zero points for "all my porn". Unless it was particularly good porn...

Those Star Wars ToysI was a bit old for them but my brother had loads,until the day of our cherised discovery.
If you put their moveable legs astride the washing line, pulled the washing line down as far as you could, then let go, the Star Wars figure would twang into the air with impressive velocity.
Needless to say this sowed the seeds of inventiveness - by stretching the line horizontally rather than vertically you could twang the figures some distance.
I don't think any of them ever got to a galaxy far far away but we lived at number 16 and C3PO made it to number 26.
I regarded this as a transitory amusement and was'nt concerned about retrieving the airborne plastic twerps, and my brother did'nt have the courage to knock at Mr Dixon's door and tell him that some stormtroopers had just landed in his back garden and please could he get them because he wanted to play with them.
Length? About 20 foot but eventually I pulled back on it too hard and it broke...bloody washing lines...
