Hi Guys,

There's a reason why you should never throw anything away.

I recently disposed of two old LCD computer monitors as they were surplus to requirements, sent them to the local tip recycle centre(i thought someone might give them a good home). Well bugger me if yesterday my main computer monitor decided to give up the ghost. so $250 later I now have a new monitor.

I also got rid of an old hands free cradle that I had for an old nokia mobile phone, which I didn't think would suit the phone I have now, so I had to get a new universal one at $70 and it is that similar in design as the nokia, I could have saved some coin.

Anyway the moral of the story, if you have a big enough shed to store stuff, keep it, sure as as soon as you get rid of it you'll need it.

Except when you know you got it but just can't find where you put, so you buy a new one anyway, then the kids come in saying was this what you were looking for. LOL

I don't know about keeping everything. What happens when the shed fills up with junk?

We sold one house because it was too small now the big house is getting cluttered because of the junk so I need to put a big 12x6 shed in to keep it all ....where does it stop....lololol

Oh yeah, I need a property with a few barn shed on it...lololo I WISH!!!


My missus is a hoarder and I hate it because as said before you can never find it when you need it ...hahahahha

Lived by that philosophy all my life
But,you either fill the shed with worthless cr*p,or you cant find it,or its buggered when you need it
Now if theres no forseable future for something its gone
Cheaper to buy it when i need it , than either trip over it or move it a thousand times
Need Vs want
