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...

That my lad... ...was a stirring and stirling piece of prose. I guess this may have some bearing on your thoughts about having kids of your own - or am I adding 2 and 2 and getting 5? Either way, you've grown up your own person and you make your own choices to your own set of guiding principles and they are good ones.
The redoubtable Mrs G had an even grimmer childhood (which was effectively ended when she was 11), but that hasn't stopped her becoming a great person and a brilliant mother. Nature? Nurture? I'm a firm believer in sheer guts and determination not to let others - even when they are your parents - take away choices for you.
