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...

A litany of loss....All, and I meant all, the Thundercats comics, in mint condition. Even the special edition 6 parter around issues 30-36 (each one contained 1/6th of a map of the Thundercats planet - I bought 2 of each issue so I could take a map out of one and still have an unspoilt copy). No idea where they went.
Hundreds of Matchbox cars - probably all worthless but I had loads of them, and they all got binned too.
All my Transformers. Again, no idea where they went (I'm starting to think that a couple of years of smoking 'imported tobacco' in the dim and distant past have done me no good at all).
Old computers and consoles aplenty - Amigas and Speccys in particular, but also a cracking little Atari 65XE that I loved and learnt my first programming language on.
About 80 grand when I decided that forking out 30 grand on a flat at 21 would have been a stupid thing to do. 10 years later I could kick myself in the bollocks over this one alone.
The feeling of tingly anticipation just before a really good wank - still present and correct thankfully!
As an aside, I also have Issue 1 of Commodore Format, still with the covermount cassette and in its plastic delivery bag - never opened. I mention it as I've been trying to bin it for years and my bloody packrat mother won't let me!
Length? Suck my arse.
