What's the most utterly useless possession you can't quite bring yourself to throw away?

I have some imperial spanner’s and some A/F spanner’s from my apprenticeship which I completed in 1975.

I have stamp collection started in the 60s which is probably worth 2p.

Me too, I started collecting stamps when I was 12 or 13 and continued for several years. I have contacted three dealers to try to sell them and no one is interested in buying them.

I have my Dad'sold stamp collection.
Most interesting is a lot of German stamps from just before the war when he had a pen pal there

I think they met at a Scout Jamboree in Holland

pity he didn;t keep the letters - but the stamps are there anyway

I must admit to having some "problematic" stamps.

Not sure any are "problematic" - I should check and see if any have "that man" on them

All my old lift passes and piste maps from ski holidays, with sometimes 2-3 copies of each map.

Emergency werewolf kit.

Despite all my music now being streamed off Apple Music. I still have a Marrantz CD73 CD player in its original box from around 1985. It’s actually now worth quite a bit of money, but I can’t quite bring myself to part with it even though I no longer own a single CD!

You know, I was wondering the other day what happened to my stamp album. I had about 7 stamps, including one from Czechoslovakia. Woo.

Expired passports going back to the early 70's. Not entirely useless as they serve as a sort of diary of the good old days when travel was fun.

I always throw mine away. I'd like to keep 'em to reminisce over the old stamps and visas but I can envisage getting to the airport bleary eyed at 6am to find I've brought an expired passport so it isn't worth the risk for a bit of nostalgia

Most of the things in my garage. (Apart from the car)

I have a stamp from 1930s Germany, the face value of which was 2 marks. It has been over-stamped "2 millionen" !!
That's proper inflation for you.

I went to a show of Hebridean music recently ("Hebridean Fire" - recommended) and bought a CD afterwards. Only then did I remember I can only play CDs in my van!
