:omgno:

I'll be sorting through them this summer.

I think I have at least 2 decks which are very old and hand painted.

[Jamesy]

Alton Towers memorabilia.

The mugs section of that collection has got a bit crazy these past few years I've had to wrap and store 10 or so Alton Towers mugs to be kept for when I move out my parents home.

Other than that I have a Pokemon card collection hiding somewhere. That's about as wild as I get with collecting.

[Niamh.]

No but I think I'm going to start collecting Garden gnomes :think:

Shot glasses from places I've been - it's my tacky tourist thing

[Shaun]

no but I'd like to when/if I ever go travelling like Greg's idea

I used to collect all sorts of weird **** as a young teen. Like there was this "alternative" or goth or whatever shop in town that would have all these tacky little things with dragons on them or something, I still have a few of them but they're mostly broken :laugh: and then I used to go around the local markets buying these little things that looked like gemstones and fools gold and interesting-looking rock/crystal things idk it's hard to explain but basically I was a very strange child and I'm glad I've grown out of it

Oh and my mum bought all of these miniature classic model cars for me, that're put away in a cupboard... I think I ruined a few of them trying to play with them as toys though (I mean really, you buy an 8 year old little cars and expect him not to try them out on his Hot Wheels set?)

(I mean I collected normal 90s child things as well - football stickers, pokemon cards)

[Livia]

They're great badges LT... I have a diamond RAF badge although I don't think it's worth an awful lot, it's not as nice as the one you posted. Love the diamond studded Artillery badge.

[Kazanne]

I don't collect anything. I'm never around in one place long enough to.

[Jake.]

i had a weird thing for keeping for keeping the boxes of all of my stuff, collecting though.. Probably not

[AnnieK]

I don't really collect anything anymore but my 4 year old is a compulsive collector....of little rubber figures like zomblings, shopkins, trashes etc. he has hundreds of each and knows exactly each and every single one.....it's a nightmare if any are missing. It's quite cute though as he and his friends at nursery trade their duplicates
