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...

Computer geniusIt doesn't quite fit the bill, but the worst thing my mum has ever thrown out was my first fanzine webpage. After countless hours of writing up HTML in notepad (this was in the mid-ninties), scanning photographs and copying down taped interviews with bands, my mum found this option called 'export'. She was cleaning up the desktop and decided to put everything into this new, shiny folder she had created, and god knows why she thought that 'export' would put it in there. Possibly she'd expected an option to actually export it somewhere. Turns out, it would end up on the connected computer or laptop... If there had been one. For my next webpage, I made a backup copy, on a floppy disk. Oh the memories :D
