Whenever I tidy the garage and make a bit of space (nothing like yours, of course) the missus fills the space with her stuff from the house. Or the boy brings some stuff round. Or the son-in-law.
That wonky writing on the white board needs straightening, mind!

Once went to a council house to buy spare doors for a Mk3 cortina, I was expecting that the person was breaking one, I could not have been more wrong, engines and gearboxes etc (all the heavy stuff) was downstairs, the doors panels etc were upstairs.... the house was full, no room to live in

I like to imagine their gasps of joy as they stumble across particular gems among my immense collection of treasures.

Recently daughters b/f bought a MGB-GT
The first time I saw it, I presented him with a brochure from its year of manufacture (1978)
There are various magazines that date back to the late 70s/early 80s

I had a lot of 911 stuff from 25 years ago when I owned one. Just sold a brochure from 1975 and it made £70 😮 a book about the Carrera RS made over £600.

We shared sentimental things, had BHF/Freegle for furniture and white goods, and then we still needed 2 skips.
We had a wheelie bin just full of just photographs, surprisingly lots of very old sepia, then loads of old B+W prints, and then much more numerous colour photos - all blurred as Dad always managed to do for both of the snaps he took of anything (even with an A.F. camera).
He even had blurred images on his last digital camera, and that still works perfectly to this day...
Didn't recognise many people or places so 90% of the photos got binned, the rest are proto tat for when my sister snuffs it.

I'm into buying clothes and shoes. I've stopped giving old/unwanted ones away as i find those i give them to are ungrateful and the charity shops when open,say they don't want anymore donations. So now i keep all the stuff i thought about giving away,making my bedroom a walk in wardrobe,meaning i have to sleep in my living room.
